     Implementation of semantic similarity measures to estimate the
     functional similarities among Gene Ontology terms and gene
     products

_D_e_t_a_i_l_s:

     Quantitative measure of functional similarities among gene
     products is important for post-genomics study. and widely used in
     gene function prediction, cluster analysis and pathway modeling.
     This package is designed to estimate the GO terms' and genes'
     semantic similarities.  Implemented five methods proposed by
     Resnik, Schlicker(Rel), Jiang, Lin and Wang respectively.  Support
     five species: human, rat, mouse, fly, and yeast.
