Table 3.

Average test data results obtained in the BRCA RNA-Seq dataset for the baseline (standard LASSO with homogeneous priors) and BLASSO with the two proposed approaches. The Area Under the Curve (AUC), average number of selected genes (#genes), robustness index (RI), computation time (mins.) and significance p-value are shown

Model	AUC	#Genes	RI	Time	p-value
Lasso	0.65 [0.63, 0.68]	283.84±28.73	0.09±0.03	21.6	-
Gene-specific	0.7 [0.66, 0.71]	238.73±19.31	0.15±0.03	2341.83	<2.2×10−16
Gene-disease	0.69 [0.66, 0.71]	226.59±20.01	0.1±0.04	2784.32	<2.2×10−16
