| Abstract | Inference of accurate gene annotations requires integration of existing biological knowledge, structured in a form of ontology, with data from transcriptomics high-throughput technologies. This undertaking requires developing algorithms that integrate genome-scale data, even for model organisms. Gene relevance networks have emerged as a powerful representative of the structure of the data. Such networks can be used for intra-species transfer of gene annotations following the guilt-by-association principle. An analogous principle can serve as a basis for inter-species transfer of gene annotations by comparing well-defined subnetworks. In this review, we compare and contrast the concepts of relevance and proximity networks and briefly review the concept of semantic similarity. We then provide a detailed account of quantitative guilt-by-association inference in the setting of genome-scale relevance networks. Moreover, we systematically survey the existing network-based approaches for automated gene function annotation and categorize them under one umbrella in terms of employed methodology. Furthermore, we discuss suitable data selection strategies required for deriving meaningful and unbiased genome-scale networks from large transcriptomics compendia. Lastly, by simulating gene function prediction with a classical network-based algorithm, we show how the number of genes of unknown function influences prediction within a species and pinpoint the need and the requirements for inter-species knowledge transfer. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
