Dear Group,


does limma provide gene set enrichment through a
wilcoxon rank sum test?

I overheard someone discussing that enrichment scores
provided through this method (limma - wilcoxon rank
sum) are better than GSEA enrichment scores. 

I see some old 2005 tutorials usings Dr. Smiths gene
set test. 

I am finding difficult to find any vignette that
discuss Gene set test and wilcoxon rank sum. 
Are there any new changes to  limma towards advanced
gene set test version. 

Please suggest. 
thanks
srini
