Figure 5From: Constructing gene co-expression networks and predicting functions of unknown genes by random matrix theorySensitivity of RMT approach. (A) Wigner surmise (green) and Poisson distribution (red) were compared to the normalized NNSDs of the yeast dataset at cutoff 0.77 and its derived correlation matrices in which 1% (cyan), 2% (blue), 3% (navy) links were rewired. (B) Chi-Square test. Poisson distribution is plotted against NNSDs of correlation matrix of yeast cell cycling dataset at cutoff 0.77 and its derived correlation matrices in which 0.1%, 0.2%, 0.3%, 0.4%, 0.5%, 0.6%, 0.7%, 0.8%, 0.9%, 1%, 2%, 3%, 4%, 5% links are rewired. The red line indicates the critical value of Chi-Square test of p = 0.001.Back to article page
