## geneSim

### Description

semantic similarity between two gene vector

### Usage

`geneID2` | gene ID vector
`measure` | one of "Wang", "Resnik", "Rel", "Jiang" and "Lin"
`combine` | One of "max", "avg", "rcmax", "BMA" methods, for combining semantic similarity scores of multiple DO terms associated with gene/protein.
`semData` | gene annotation data for semantic measurement

### Value

score matrix
