To improve GBA-based gene function prediction and pathway reconstruction.

Main Methods:

Mathematical and biological analysis of GBA principle with condition-specific experiments.
Development of a semi-supervised algorithm to select relevant experiments from large transcriptomics collections.
Extensive testing on yeast and Arabidopsis datasets for GO terms, MIPS FunCat, and KEGG pathways.

Main Results:

Statistically significant improvement in gene correlation within functional categories using selected experiments.
Enhanced accuracy in GBA-based gene function prediction.
Successful application to GBA-based pathway reconstruction, reflecting existing literature knowledge.

Conclusions:

Condition-specific experiments are vital for accurate GBA functional analysis.
The developed algorithm effectively selects relevant experiments, improving downstream analyses.
The algorithm's performance is robust across different functional categories and organisms.
