Fig. 3From: QuaDMutNetEx: a method for detecting cancer driver genes with low mutation frequencyIllustration of the role of the network term N(A,x). Based solely on the mutual exclusivity, potential solutions 1 and 2 are equally good, both show perfect mutual exclusivity. Inclusion of network term N(A,x) makes potential solution 2 the preferred one, since it consists of more highly connected genesBack to article page
