Network component analysis: Reconstruction of regulatory signals in biological systems

Network component analysis: reconstruction of regulatory signals in biological systems.

High-dimensional data sets generated by high-throughput technologies, such as DNA microarray, are often the outputs of complex networked systems driven by hidden regulatory signals. Traditional statistical methods for computing low-dimensional or hidden representations of these data sets, such as principal component analysis and independent component analysis, ignore the underlying network stru...

analysis of power in the network society

اندیشمندان و صاحب نظران علوم اجتماعی بر این باورند که مرحله تازه ای در تاریخ جوامع بشری اغاز شده است. ویژگیهای این جامعه نو را می توان پدیده هایی از جمله اقتصاد اطلاعاتی جهانی ، هندسه متغیر شبکه ای، فرهنگ مجاز واقعی ، توسعه حیرت انگیز فناوری های دیجیتال، خدمات پیوسته و نیز فشردگی زمان و مکان برشمرد. از سوی دیگر قدرت به عنوان موضوع اصلی علم سیاست جایگاه مهمی در روابط انسانی دارد، قدرت و بازتولید...

Fast network component analysis (FastNCA) for gene regulatory network reconstruction from microarray data

MOTIVATION Recently developed network component analysis (NCA) approach is promising for gene regulatory network reconstruction from microarray data. The existing NCA algorithm is an iterative method which has two potential limitations: computational instability and multiple local solutions. The subsequently developed NCA-r algorithm with Tikhonov regularization can help solve the first issue b...

Nonnegative Network Component Analysis by Linear Programming for Gene Regulatory Network Reconstruction

We consider a systems biology problem of reconstructing gene regulatory network from time-course gene expression microarray data, a special blind source separation problem for which conventional methods cannot be applied. Network component analysis (NCA), which makes use of the structural information of the mixing matrix, is a tailored method for this specific blind source separation problem. I...
