  • Enrichment score. The algorithm walks down the ranked list of all the genes in the model, increasing the running sum each time when a gene in the current gene set is encountered. Conversely, the running-sum is decreased each time a gene not in the current gene set is encountered. The magnitude of the increment depends on the correlation of the gene with the experimental factor. The enrichment score is then the maximum deviation from zero encountered in the random walk (the summit of the curve).
  • Gene set hits. Each column shows the location of a gene from the current gene set, within the ranked list of all the genes in the model.
  • Rank metricThe plot shows the value of the ranking metric as you move down the ranked list of all the genes in the model. The ranking metric measures a gene’s correlation with a phenotype. A positive value of the metric indicates correlation with the first category (Numerator) and a negative value indicates correlation with the second category (Denominator).
