Abstract We present the metrics for assessing overall functional coherence of a group of proteins based on associated biomedical literature. A probabilistic topic model is applied to extract biologic concepts from a corpus of protein-related biomedical literature. Bipartite protein semantic networks are constructed so that the functional coherence of a protein group can be evaluated with metrics that measure the closeness and strength of connectivity of the proteins in the network. Background A cellular function is usually carried out by a group of proteins such as the proteins that participate in a common metabolic pathway or a signal transduction pathway. Based on the assumption that the expression of the proteins involved in a biologic process should be coordinated many computational methods have been developed to identify the potential modules of genes or proteins based on high throughput technologies
