FunChisq outperformed six widely-used methods in detecting known cancer genes from FANTOM5 data. FunChisq test, Pearson’s chi-squared test, Wilcoxon test, t-test and logistic regression used transformed expression data. DESeq2 and edgeR used raw read count data. a ROC curves of each method. b PR curves of each method. c AUROC distributions after repeating the randomized evaluation 100 times. d AUPR distributions after repeating the randomized evaluation 100 times
