Numbers of GO terms obtained by \(d_r\) and \(d_s\) in gene clustering with significant difference. Numbers of GO terms is obtained by \(d_r\) and \(d_s\) respectively. The figure includes pairs with significant difference in P-values for corresponding GO terms in \(d_r\) and \(d_s\). Each bar implies one run (certain distance measure and clustering method in one data set), and the adjacent red and green bar refer to one comparison (only the distance measure is different). Grey rectangular from left to right include comparison pairs in Pearson correlation, Spearaman correlation, uncentered Pearson correlation with hierarchical clustering, and Pearson correlation, Spearaman correlation with PAM. Uncentered Pearson correlation with PAM have no GO terms that have significant difference. y-axis refers to the number of times that the GO term of \(d_s\) has smaller P-value than that of \(d_r\) (red bar), and vice versa
