Logistic regression. Evaluation of the logistic regression on synthetic data reveals that expected inverse relationship between expression and methylation can be correctly ranked. R is the correlation coefficient and determines the quality of the logistic regression. The associations are ordered according to their R value and reflect the strength of the method's confidence on an epigenetic regulation. The logistic approach is flexible enough to incorporate any data scale and distribution, and does not contain rigid and arbitrary definitions that could limit its application
