A fast and high performance multiple data integration algorithm for identifying human disease genes.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Accurate discovery of molecular biomarkers that are prognostic of a clinical outcome is an important yet challenging task, partly due to the combination of the typically weak genomic signal for a clinical outcome and the frequently strong noise due to microarray handling effects. Effective strategies to reso...
