RSGCC

We introduced the Gini correlation coefficient, a member of the family of Gini methodologies that have been widely used in economics, to infer non-linear transcriptional regulatory relationships in transcriptomics data (Figure 2). The Gini-based R package rsgcc would be an alternative option for biologists to perform clustering analyses of gene expression patterns or transcriptional network analysis.
