The gene regulatory network is considered as a nonlinear dynamic stochastic model that consists of the gene measurement equation and the gene regulation equation. After specifying the model structure, we apply the EKF algorithm for identifying both the model parameters and the actual value of gene expression levels. It is shown that the EKF algorithm is an online estimation algorithm that can identify a large number of parameters (including parameters of nonlinear functions) through iterative procedure by using a small number of observations. Four real-world gene expression data sets are employed to demonstrate the effectiveness of the EKF algorithm, and the obtained models are evaluated from the viewpoint of bioinformatics
Reconstructing dynamical networks via feature ranking
Empirical data on real complex systems are becoming increasingly available.
Parallel to this is the need for new methods of reconstructing (inferring) the
topology of networks from time-resolved observations of their node-dynamics.
The methods based on physical insights often rely on strong assumptions about
the properties and dynamics of the scrutinized network. Here, we use the
insights from machine learning to design a new method of network reconstruction
that essentially makes no such assumptions. Specifically, we interpret the
available trajectories (data) as features, and use two independent feature
ranking approaches -- Random forest and RReliefF -- to rank the importance of
each node for predicting the value of each other node, which yields the
reconstructed adjacency matrix. We show that our method is fairly robust to
coupling strength, system size, trajectory length and noise. We also find that
the reconstruction quality strongly depends on the dynamical regime
