diseasome

Overview

This is a dataset of diseases and the genes associated with them. In this dataset, a disease is a node and a gene is a hyperedge. The "label" attribute of the nodes gives the disease description and the "label" attribute of the edges gives the gene name. The disease-disease correlations were filtered out to enforce only disease-gene relationships.

Statistics

Some basic statistics of this dataset are:

• number of nodes: 516
• number of hyperedges: 903
• The dataset is connected
