Applications of Different Weighting Schemes to Improve Pathway-Based Analysis

Table 11

Random forests results for simulated datasets under uniform weight and RWM scheme: (a) simulation case 1 uses covariance structure and mean of Pathway ID 164 from type II diabetes dataset, (b) simulation case 2 uses covariance structure and mean of Pathway ID 441 from canine dataset.
