DysPIA: A Novel Dysregulated Pathway Identification Analysis Method.

ABSTRACT: Differential co-expression-based pathway analysis is still limited and not widely used. In most current methods, the pathways were considered as gene sets, but the gene regulation relationships were not considered, and the computational speed was slow. In this article, we proposed a novel Dysregulated Pathway Identification Analysis (DysPIA) method to overcome these shortcomings. We adopted the idea of Correlation by Individual Level Product into analysis and performed a fast enrichment analysis. We constructed a combined gene-pair background which was much more sufficient than the background used in Edge Set Enrichment Analysis. In simulation study, DysPIA was able to identify the causal pathways with high AUC (0.9584 to 0.9896). In p53 mutation data, DysPIA obtained better performance th
