The effective structure of complex networks drives dynamics, criticality and control

چکیده
Network Science has provided predictive models of many complex systems from molecular biology to social interactions. Most of this success is achieved by reducing multivariate dynamics to a graph of static interactions. Such network structure approach has provided many insights about the organization of complex systems. However, there is also a need to understand how to control them; for example, to revert a diseased cell to a healthy state or a mature cell to a pluripotent state in systems biology models of biochemical regulation. Based on recent work [2], using various Boolean models of biochemical regulation dynamics and large ensembles of network motifs, we show that in general the control of complex networks cannot be predicted from structure alone. Structure-only methods such as structural controllability and minimum dominating set theory both undershoot and overshoot the number and which sets of variables actually control these models, highlighting the importance of dynamics in determining control. We show that canalization measured as logical redundancy in automata transition functions models [5] plays a very important role in the extent to which structure predicts dynamics. To further understand how canalization influences the controllability of multivariate dynamics, we introduce the concept of effective structure, obtained by removing all redundancy from the (discrete) dynamics of models of biochemical regulation using our schemata redescription approach [5]. We show how such effective structure reveals the dynamical modularity [3] and robustness in systems biology models [5]. Furthermore, we demonstrate that the connectivity (i.e. the in-degree) of the effective graph is an order parameter of Boolean Network dynamics, and a major factor in network controllability [4]. Indeed, we propose a new theory for criticality in Boolean networks based on effective connectivity ke (the in-degree of the effective structure), which substantially outperforms the existing theory [1] based on the in-degree of the original connectivity of Boolean networks (see Figure 1 and its caption for details).

Logical models offer a simple but powerful means to understand the complex dynamics of biochemical regulation, without the need to estimate kinetic parameters. However, even simple automata components can lead to collective dynamics that are computationally intractable when aggregated into networks. In previous work we demonstrated that automata network models of biochemical regulation are high...

Homeostatic intrinsic plasticity (HIP) is a ubiquitous cellular mechanism regulating neuronal activity, cardinal for the proper functioning of nervous systems. In invertebrates, HIP is critical for orchestrating stereotyped activity patterns. The functional impact of HIP remains more obscure in vertebrate networks, where higher-order cognitive processes rely on complex neural dynamics. The hypo...
