Table 1 Summary parameters used in simulation studies.
Simulated Study A | Simulated Study B | |
|---|---|---|
Number of categories | 250 | 250 |
no. categories with d.e.g. | 25 | 25 |
Scenarios analised | 7 (% d.e.g.'s) | 12 (% d.e.g.'s (3) × no.genes categories (4)) |
% d.e.g.'s within category | 20,30,40,50,60,70,80 | 30,50,70 |
no. genes in each category | In each scenario, categories have different number of genes, systematicaly taken from 5, 10, 30, 55, 100 | In each scenario, all categories have the same number of genes. Different cases: 5,10,50,100 |
Total number of genes | 1000 | 1250, 2500, 12500, 25000 (250 × no. genes in each category) |
