Optimization and dynamics of gene-environment networks with intervals

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 to research done previously, we additionally imply the fact that there are measurement errors in the microarray technology and in the environmental data likewise; moreover, the effects which exists among the genes and environmental items can seldom be precisely quantified. Furthermore, we present the well-established matrix algebra for our extended model space, and we indicate further new approaches.

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 ...
On optimization, dynamics and uncertainty: A tutorial for gene-environment networks
WEBER, G. -W.; Uğur, Ömür; Taylan, P.; TEZEL, AYSUN (2009-05-28)
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...
Evaluating the effects of rescaling parameters in large-scale genomic simulations
Kıratlı, Ozan; Birand Özsoy, Ayşegül Ceren; Department of Biology (2016)
Computer simulations are widely used in many subdisciplines of biological sciences, which evolutionary biology. Large-scale genomic simulations, where several kb (kilo base) to several Mb (megabase) genomes are modeled, are being increasingly used. These simulations require high computing power. There are some methods proposed in the literature to decrease the time and memory demand of these simulations. This study is concentrated on one of those methods, where both the number of generation, and the number ...
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...
