Illustration of the pipeline. The methodology takes as input an expression matrix. The optimisation process calculates the strength of the correlation for each gene with a chosen gene and identifies the samples where the correlation is optimal. Subsequently, genes are ranked and a number of genes are selected. Then, the selected genes are characterised analysing the GO terms enrichment and the properties of the PPI network established by the proteins they produce.
