An emerging research area in computational biology and biotechnology is devoted to mathematical modeling and prediction of gene-expression patterns; to fully understand its foundations requires a mathematical study. This paper surveys and mathematically expands recent advances in modeling and prediction by rigorously introducing the environment and aspects of errors and uncertainty into the genetic context within the framework of matrix and interval arithmetic. Given the data from DNA microarray experiments and environmental measurements we extract nonlinear ordinary differential equations which contain parameters that are to be determined. This is done by a generalized Chebychev approximation and generalized semi-infinite optimization. Then, time-discretized dynamical systems are studied. By a combinatorial algorithm which constructs and follows polyhedra sequences, the region of parametric stability is detected. Finally, we analyze the topological landscape of gene-environment networks in terms of structural stability. This pioneering work is practically motivated and theoretically elaborated; it is directed towards contributing to applications concerning better health care, progress in medicine, a better education and more healthy living conditions.

A Review on Data Mining and Continuous Optimization Applications in Computational Biology and Medicine
Weber, Gerhard Wilhelm; Ozogur-Akyuz, Sureyya; Kropat, Erik (2009-06-01)
An emerging research area in computational biology and biotechnology is devoted to mathematical modeling and prediction of gene-expression patterns; it nowadays requests mathematics to deeply understand its foundations. This article surveys data mining and machine learning methods for an analysis of complex systems in computational biology, It mathematically deepens recent advances in modeling and prediction by rigorously introducing the environment and aspects of errors and uncertainty into the genetic con...
An algorithmic approach to analyse genetic networks and biological energy production: an introduction and contribution where OR meets biology
Uğur, Ömür; WEBER, G. -W.; WUENSCHIERS, R. (2009-01-01)
An emerging research area in computational biology and biotechnology is devoted to modelling and prediction of gene-expression patterns. In this article, after a short review of recent achievements we deepen and extend them, especially, by emphasizing and analysing the elegant means of matrix algebra. Based on experimental data, ordinary differential equations with nonlinearities on the right-hand side and a generalized treatment of the absolute shift term, representing the environmental effects, are invest...
On generalized semi-infinite optimization of genetic networks
Weber, Gerhard Wilhelm; Tezel, Aysun (2007-07-01)
Since some years, the emerging area of computational biology is looking for its mathematical foundations. Based on modem contributions given to this area, our paper approaches modeling and prediction of gene-expression patterns by optimization theory, with a special emphasis on generalized semi-infinite optimization. Based on experimental data, nonlinear ordinary differential equations are obtained by the optimization of least-squares errors. The genetic process can be investigated by a time-discretization ...
Optimization and dynamics of gene-environment networks with intervals
Uğur, Ömür (2007-05-01)
There are a few areas of science and technology which are only as challenging, emerging and promising as computational biology. This area is looking for its mathematical foundations, for methods of prediction while guaranteeing robustness, and it is of a rigorous interdisciplinary nature. In this paper, we deepen and extend the approach of learning gene-expression patterns in the framework of gene-environment networks by optimization, especially, generalized semi-infinite optimization (GSIP). With respect t...
Analysis and prediction of gene expression patterns by dynamical systems, and by a combinatorial algorithm
Taştan, Mesut; Weber, Gerhard Wilhelm; Department of Scientific Computing (2005)
Modeling and prediction of gene-expression patterns has an important place in computational biology and bioinformatics. The measure of gene expression is determined from the genomic analysis at the mRNA level by means of microarray technologies. Thus, mRNA analysis informs us not only about genetic viewpoints of an organism but also about the dynamic changes in environment of that organism. Different mathematical methods have been developed for analyzing experimental data. In this study, we discuss the mode...
