P-vlaue (EASE score)
•To examine the significance of
gene–term enrichment with a modified Fisher’s exact test (EASE score).
•The smaller the P-values, the
more significant they are
•Default cutoff is 0.1
•Users could set different levels
of cutoff through option panel on the top of result page.
•Owing to the complexity of
biological data mining of this type, P-values are suggested to be treated
as score systems, i.e., suggesting roles rather than decision-making roles.
•Users themselves should play
critical roles in judging ‘are the results making sense or not for
expected biology
