Abstract :
In recent years, there is an incredible growth of network methods to explore functionality of genes from the system level. However, most researchers are focused on the unweighted networks. In this paper, a new weighted networks method is established. To evaluate the efficiency of the method, application of the method to screen diabetic candidate pathogenic gene and module recognition are also given.
