Table 3.

Correlation between GeneSurrounder results and network/gene statistics

Network/Gene statistic GSE14764 GSE17260 GSE9891
Degree Cor. 0.044 0.070 0.038
Betweenness Cor. 0.047 0.059 0.030
pDE Cor. 0.060 0.103 − 0.051

The three columns are the rank correlation between GeneSurrounder results (pGS) and network/gene statistics (Degree, Betweenness, and pDE) across all genes in each dataset. The Degree and Betweenness are two different network centrality measures. The Degree is the number of connections a node has and the Betweenness is the fraction of shortest paths that passes through the node. pDE is the p-value obtained from a standard differential expression t-test
