Similarity Network Fusion (SNF) is a novel methodological tool that integrates multiple different types of data to identify homogeneous subsets of patients in whom disease classification may be otherwise unclear or challenging. In this review article, the authors hope to provide insight into how SNF can be used in clinical decision making where the aim is to have little influence on the data prior to obtaining the results of the analysis.
相似性网络融合(SNF)是一种新颖的方法工具,它整合多种不同类型的数据,以识别疾病分类可能不明确或具有挑战性的患者的同质子集。在这篇综述文章中,作者希望深入探讨SNF如何用于临床决策,其目的是在获得分析结果之前对数据的影响最小。
