Abstract
Provided are a method and system for predicting pathways of genes that serve the same biological purpose using gene expression pattern data and protein interaction data. The method of predicting a gene pathway includes: a first step of generating partial pathways from gene expression pattern data by using a pathway extraction algorithm, and matching the partial pathways to express them as a graph; a second step of generating partial pathways from protein interaction data by using a pathway extraction algorithm, and matching the partial pathways to express them as a graph; and a third step of combining a graph made in the first step and a graph made in the second step by using a graph matching algorithm to make a combined graph.
