In statistical literature, gene networks are represented by graphical models, known by their sparsity in high dimensions. In this study, we suggest novel model selection criteria, namely, ICOMP, CAIC and CAICF to apply on simulated gene networks when selecting an optimal model among alternative estimated networks' constructions. In this description, we build models with the Gaussian graphical model (GGM) and the inference of GGM is achieved via the graphical lasso method. In the assessment of our proposed model selection criteria, we compare their accuracies with other well-known criteria in this field under various dimensions and topologies of networks.

A New Mathematical Approach in Environmental and Life Sciences: Gene-Environment Networks and Their Dynamics
Weber, Gerhard Wilhelm; Alparslan-Gok, S. Z.; Soyler, B. (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2009-04-01)
An important research area in life sciences is devoted to modeling, prediction, and dynamics of gene-expression patterns. As clearly understood in these days, this enterprise cannot become satisfactory without acknowledging the role of the environment. To a representation of past, present, and most likely future states, we also encounter measurement errors and uncertainties. This paper surveys and improves recent advances in understanding the foundations and interdisciplinary implications of the newly intro...
A review on modeling and simulation of quenching
Şimşir, Caner; Gür, Cemil Hakan (ASTM International, 2009-02-01)
Modeling and simulation of quenching are powerful tools in the design, optimization, and understanding of the quenching process since they provide quantitative results such as the evolution of microstructure and the internal stresses, which are practically impossible to acquire experimentally. The research on simulation of quenching and related phenomena originates from the early 70s and is still an active field owing to its industrial and scientific output. This paper aims to provide a comprehensive review...
Analysis of the heterogeneity scale effects on pump and treat aquifer remediation design
Güngör Demirci, Gamze; Aksoy, Ayşegül; Department of Environmental Engineering (2009)
The effect of heterogeneity correlation scale of hydraulic conductivity (K), equilibrium distribution coefficient (Kd) and mass transfer rate on the design and cost of the P&T remediation system for different heterogeneity levels (defined by the variance (σ2lnK)) and parameter distributions under the rate-limited sorption conditions was evaluated in this study. In addition, the impacts of initial amount of contaminant mass and plume configuration on the remediation design and cost were explored. The effects...
Novel model selection criteria on high dimensionalbiological networks
Bülbül, Gül Baha; Purutçuoğlu Gazi, Vilda; Department of Statistics (2019)
Gaussian graphical model (GGM) is an useful tool to describe the undirected associ-ations among the genes in the sparse biological network. To infer such high dimen-sional biological networks, thel1-penalized maximum-likelihood estimation methodis used. This approach performs a variable selection procedure by using a regular-ization parameter which controls the sparsity in the network. Thus, a selection ofthe regularization parameter becomes crucial to define the true interactions in the bi-ological ne...
Semi-Bayesian Inference of Time Series Chain Graphical Models in Biological Networks
Farnoudkia, Hajar; Purutçuoğlu Gazi, Vilda (null; 2018-09-20)
The construction of biological networks via time-course datasets can be performed both deterministic models such as ordinary differential equations and stochastic models such as diffusion approximation. Between these two branches, the former has wider application since more data can be available. In this study, we particularly deal with the probabilistic approaches for the steady-state or deterministic description of the biological systems when the systems are observed though time. Hence, we consider time s...
