Abstract
We present a statistical method that can swiftly identify, from
the literature, sets of genes known to be associated with
given diseases. It offers a comprehensive way to treat alias
symbols, a statistical method for computing the relevance
of the gene to the query, and a novel way to disambiguate
gene symbols from other abbreviations. The method
is illustrated by finding genes related to breast cancer.
