Modify Rankprop to include PPI information (hybrid Rankprop). Accounts for multiple paralogs (mutual Rankprop). Test on netowrk from more than two species.

Comparison also with MRF and ISORank.

Protein form a weighted network where weights are sequence similarity. Initially the query protein is assigned score 1.0 and a diffusion procedure is used to pump the score to the other nodes. Upon termination, each protein is assigned a score, higher score implies greater level of similarity.

Hybrid Rankprop

PPI is also a weighted network, each edge has a confidence score.

Transform weights and normalize them, use a parameter p to determine contribution of PPI vs sequence similarity.

Mutual Rankprop

Consider the top ranked candidates, query from each of them and re-rank them. Uses this to distinguish between the top ranked candidates.
