The model selection is a decision problem to choose which variables should be included in a statistical model among all plausible models that could be constructed. There are many applications of this problem in different fields from social to mathematical sciences. Here, we particularly deal with the model selection in the construction of the biological networks when the activation of the systems is described under the steady-state condition. The common features of biological networks are their high dimensions, sparsities and interdependences between networks’ components. Due to these challenges, many model selection criteria such as AIC and BIC cannot be successfully applicable in this field. In this study, as the novelty, we suggest ICOMP (information complexity criterion) and its close alternatives, so-called, CAIC and CAICF, in modelling real biological networks with Gaussian graphical model (GGM) and loopbased multivariate adaptive regression splines (LMARS). GGM is one of the common graphical models in systems biology and LMARS is a recently suggested nonparametric model as an alternate of GGM. In our analyses, we initially derive ICOMP, CAIC and CAICF for these two models and then compare their performances with their major criteria, namely, RIC and STARS in GGM and GCV in LMARS.

Evidence Optimization for Consequently Generated Models
Strijov, Vadim; Krymova, Katya; Weber, Gerhard Wilhelm (2010-12-04)
To construct as adequate regression model one has to fulfill the set of measured features with their generated derivatives. Often the number of these features exceeds the number of the samples in the data set. After a feature generation process the problem of feature selection from a set of highly correlated features arises. The proposed algorithm uses an evidence maximization procedure to select a model as a subset of generated features. During the selection process it rejects multicollinear features. A pr...
Hypothesis testing in one-way classification AR(1) model with Student’s t innovations: An application to a real life data
Yıldırım, Özgecan; Yozgatlıgil, Ceylan; Şenoğlu, Birdal (null; 2017-05-26)
In this study, we estimate the model parameters in one-way classification AR (1) model when the distribution of the error terms is independently and identically distributed (iid) Student’s t. Maximum likelihood (ML) methodology is used in the estimation procedure. We also introduce the F statistic based on the ML estimators of the parameters for testing the equality of the treatment means. See also Yıldırım (2017) (M.S. Thesis, METU, Ankara, Continue) and Şenoğlu and Bayrak (2016) (Linear Contrasts in one-w...
An evolutionary metaheuristic for approximating preference-nondominated solutions
Koekalan, Murat; Phelps, Selcen (Pamuk) (2007-03-01)
We propose an evolutionary metaheuristic for approximating the preference-nondominated solutions of a decision maker in multiobjective combinatorial problems. The method starts out with some partial preference information provided by the decision maker, and utilizes an individualized fitness function to converge toward a representative set of solutions favored by the information at hand. The breadth of the set depends on the precision of the partial information available on the decision maker's preferences....
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...
Functional Impulses in Exact Stochastic Simulation
Altıntan, Derya; Purutçuoğlu Gazi, Vilda; Uğur, Ömür (2015-08-20)
Jumps which are observed in many population models give rise to fluctuations in the dynamics of systems. Deterministic model which is based on the Impulsive Differential Equations (IDEs) considers these jumps as impulses and defines the dynamics of the system between successive jump times with the Ordinary Differential Equations (ODEs). From our previous studies, we have proposed a model which is the complement of IDEs in the sense that both studies consider the jumps as impulses. The main difference betwee...
