Figure 6. Specificity of the proteasome towards prediction of disease states.
A) The average Sum of Squared Error (SSE) for prediction of the disease phenotype (OPMD vs. control) given the gene expression profiles within the constructed networks learnt on the proteasome, 100 random genes, 70 not-deregulated random genes (ND), and the ribosome. The cross-validation set which is used during the training phase is depicted by C.V. and the independent test sets are grouped as IND. Test Sets. B) ROC space demonstrates the relative sensitivity and specificity of the generated networks in predicting the disease phenotype. The proteasome, 100 random genes, 70 random genes (ND), and ribosome are illustrated in different colors (red, purple, green, and yellow, respectively). The results from random expectations are illustrated by the gray dash-line.
