ProphTools: general prioritization tools for heterogeneous biological networks
Background Networks have been proven effective representations for the analysis of biological data. As such, there exist multiple methods to extract knowledge from biological networks. However, these approaches usually limit their scope to a single biological entity type of interest or they lack the flexibility to analyze user-defined data. Results We developed ProphTools, a flexible open-sou...
متن کاملSpectral algorithms for heterogeneous biological networks.
Spectral methods, which use information relating to eigenvectors, singular vectors and generalized singular vectors, help us to visualize and summarize sets of pairwise interactions. In this work, we motivate and discuss the use of spectral methods by taking a matrix computation view and applying concepts from applied linear algebra. We show that this unified approach is sufficiently flexible t...
متن کاملTools for visual analysis of biological networks
The trend in tools for visualization and analysis of cell pathways is to go beyond small-scale static depictions of pathways and towards large-scale networks capturing cellular dynamics. Such tools attempt to construct pathways automatically and integrate data from large datasets in genomics, proteomics and transcriptomics to give a more meaningful representation of cell activity. We look at te...
متن کاملTools for visually exploring biological networks
UNLABELLED Many tools exist for visually exploring biological networks including well-known examples such as Cytoscape, VisANT, Pathway Studio and Patika. These systems play a key role in the development of integrative biology, systems biology and integrative bioinformatics. The trend in the development of these tools is to go beyond 'static' representations of cellular state, towards a more dy...
متن کاملAlgorithmic Aspects of Heterogeneous Biological Networks Comparison
Following the innovative approach proposed in [3], we investigate the complexity of comparing two biological networks of different types – and thus, possibly differently modeled. More precisely, we consider the decomposition problem (either covering or partitioning) of one of the networks into Directed Acyclic Graphs (DAGs) with the extra requirement that, for each of these DAGs, there exists a...
