Efficient prediction of human protein-protein interactions at a global scale.

abstract：BACKGROUND:High-throughput "omics" based data analysis play emerging roles in life sciences and molecular diagnostics. This emphasizes the urgent need for user-friendly windows-based software interfaces that could process the diversity of large tab-delimited raw data files generated by these methods. Depending on the s...
