Naturally, genes interact with each other by forming a complicated network and the relationship between groups of genes can be showed by different functions as gene networks. Recently, there has been a growing concern in uncovering these complex structures from gene expression data by modeling them mathematically. The Gaussian graphical model (GGM) is one of the very popular parametric approaches for modelling the underlying types of biochemical systems. In this study, we evaluate the performance of this probabilistic model via different criteria from the change in dimension of the systems to the change in the distribution of the data. Hereby, we generate high dimensional simulated data via copulas and apply them in GGM to compare sensitivity, specificity, F-measure and various other accuracy measures. We also assess its performance under real datasets. We consider that such comprehensive analyses can be helpful for assessing the limitation of this common model and for developing alternative approaches to overcome its disadvantages.

Comprehensive Analyses of Gaussian Graphical Model under Different Biological Networks
Dokuzoglu, D.; Purutçuoğlu Gazi, Vilda (2017-09-01)

Integer linear programming based solutions for construction of biological networks
Eren Özsoy, Öykü; Can, Tolga; Department of Health Informatics (2014)
Inference of gene regulatory or signaling networks from perturbation experiments and gene expression assays is one of the challenging problems in bioinformatics. Recently, the inference problem has been formulated as a reference network editing problem and it has been show that finding the minimum number of edit operations on a reference network in order to comply with perturbation experiments is an NP-complete problem. In this dissertation, we propose linear programming based solutions for reconstruction o...
Inference of Gene Regulatory Networks Via Multiple Data Sources and a Recommendation Method
Ozsoy, Makbule Gulcin; Polat, Faruk; Alhajj, Reda (2015-11-12)
Gene regulatory networks (GRNs) are composed of biological components, including genes, proteins and metabolites, and their interactions. In general, computational methods are used to infer the connections among these components. However, computational methods should take into account the general features of the GRNs, which are sparseness, scale-free topology, modularity and structure of the inferred networks. In this work, observing the common aspects between recommendation systems and GRNs, we decided to ...
Mathematical Modeling and Approximation of Gene Expression Patterns
Yılmaz, Fatih; Öktem, Hüseyin Avni (2004-09-03)
This study concerns modeling, approximation and inference of gene regulatory dynamics on the basis of gene expression patterns. The dynamical behavior of gene expressions is represented by a system of ordinary differential equations. We introduce a gene-interaction matrix with some nonlinear entries, in particular, quadratic polynomials of the expression levels to keep the system solvable. The model parameters are determined by using optimization. Then, we provide the time-discrete approximation of our time...
Partially Observable Gene Regulatory Network Control Without a Boundary on Horizon
Erdogdu, Utku; Polat, Faruk; Alhajj, Reda (2012-11-09)
Gene regulatory networks (GRNs) govern the protein transcription process in the cell and interactions among genes play a vital role in determining the biosynthesis rate of proteins. By using intervention techniques discovered by biological research it is possible to control a GRN, thus promoting or demoting the expression rate of a certain gene. In this work, this control task is studied in a partially observable setting where interventions lack perfect knowledge of the expression level of all genes. Moreov...
