Interacting proteins may often experience similar selection pressures. Thus, we may expect that neighbouring proteins in biological interaction networks evolve at similar rates. This has been previously shown for protein-protein interaction networks. Similarly, we find correlated rates of evolution of neighbours in networks based on co-expression, metabolism, and synthetic lethal genetic intera...

Adaptive behaviour of plants, including rapid changes in physiology, gene regulation and defence response, can be altered when linked to neighbouring plants by a mycorrhizal network (MN). Mechanisms underlying the behavioural changes include mycorrhizal fungal colonization by the MN or interplant communication via transfer of nutrients, defence signals or allelochemicals. We focus this review o...

Inference of the topology of gene regulatory networks from experimental data is one of the primary challenges of systems biology. In an example of a genetic network of cyclins in the yeast cell cycle, we analyzed static genome-wide location data together with microarray kinetic measurements using a recurrent neural network-based model of gene expression and a newly developed, unbiased algorithm...

the proposed iafc neural networks have both stability and plasticity because theyuse a control structure similar to that of the art-1(adaptive resonance theory) neural network.the unsupervised iafc neural network is the unsupervised neural network which uses the fuzzyleaky learning rule. this fuzzy leaky learning rule controls the updating amounts by fuzzymembership values. the supervised iafc ...

in recent years, researches on reinforcement learning (rl) have focused on bridging the gap between adaptive optimal control and bio-inspired learning techniques. neural network reinforcement learning (nnrl) is among the most popular algorithms in the rl framework. the advantage of using neural networks enables the rl to search for optimal policies more efficiently in several real-life applicat...

as an aromatic and colorful plant of substantive taste, saffron (crocus sativus l.) owes such properties of matter to growing class of the secondary metabolites derived from the carotenoids, apocarotenoids. regarding the critical role of micrornas in secondary metabolic synthesis and the limited number of identified mirnas in c. sativus, on the other hand, one may see the point how the characte...

In the past year, great strides have been made in our understanding of the regulatory networks that control gene expression in the model eukaryote Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The development and use of a number of genomic tools, including genome-wide location and expression analysis, has fueled this progress. In addition, a variety of computational algorithms have been devised to mine genomic seq...

Over the past few years, powerful new methods have been devised that enable researchers to study the expression dynamics of many genes simultaneously (e.g. gene expression profiles using cDNA microarrays). In principle, this potentially vast quantity of data enables the dissection of the complex genetic networks that control the patterns and rhythms of gene expression in the cell. Finding the p...
