Figure 5

Venn diagrams illustrating the degree of overlap between the statistically significant probe sets identified by the Modified Wilcoxon test, with the corresponding probe sets identified by other methods (WT, t-test, PAM and EDGE). Panel A: Venn diagram illustrating the overlap between the MWT classifier and the top 2,829 differentially expressed probe sets, rank ordered using FDR values and identified using canonical approaches (t-test and WT with FDR correction). Panel B: Venn diagram depicting the overlap between the MWT classifier and the top ranked probe sets identified using computationally intensive feature selection methods.
