Abstract:
1. A method of determining whether there is a functional relationship between a first cellular constituent and a second cellular constituent, the method comprising: (a) in a computer system, generating a first cellular constituent correlation matrix of a first plurality of correlation coefficients, (b) in the computer system, applying the preselected order to generate a second cellular constituent correlation matrix of a second plurality of correlation coefficients, (c) optionally repeating step (b) one or more times, each time generating a different cellular constituent correlation matrix of a different plurality of correlation coefficients thereby forming a plurality of cellular constituent correlation matrices, (d) outputting to a user interface device, a computer readable storage medium, or a local or remote computer system; or displaying; the cellular constituent correlation matrices, or an indication of whether a functional relationship is determined to be present between said first cellular constituent and said second cellular constituent.
