  3. Boolean Network

  4. Boolean Network • Mathematical model of genetic networks • node⇔gene • State of node：　1 (active) /0 (inactive) • Regulation rules • Boolean function(AND, OR, NOT …) • Edge from y to x⇔y directly controls x • Synchronized update • Almost the same as digital circuits(with clocks) [Kauffman, The Origin of Order, 1993]

  6. Why Boolean Networks ? • Criticism that BN is too simplified • Unless simplified, difficult for theoretical analysis, inference, and control • though complex models can be used for simulation • Maybe useful for qualitative analyses • One of most simple non-linear models • Negative results on BN suggest negative results on more general (non-linear) models • Almost the same as digital circuits • Theories and techniques in computer science can beutilized

  7. Our focus: Time Complexity • Many problems for BN are NP-hard • NP-hard means that there is no polynomial time algorithm (unless P=NP) • It will take O(2n) time or more if we use naïve methods • But, we want to solve much better • Because we can solve the cases of • n=300 for O(1.1n) • n=600 for O(1.05n) • Important for coping with large-scale networks

  8. Attractor Detection

  11. indegree＝２ indegree＝３ v v N-K Model (Kauffman Network) • N: Number of nodes (We use n instead of N) • K: Indegree • Indegree = the number of input edges = the number of genes directly affecting node v • Each node has (maximum or average) indegree K • Boolean function assigned to each node is randomly selected

  12. Distribution of Attractors inN-KModel • Classical conjecture • The number of attractors is • Recent results suggest that this conjecture may not be true • Superpolynomial growth ( > nγ for any γ) of the number of attractors (Samuelsson & Troein, PRL, 2003) • Superpolynomial growth of the average size of attractors (Drossel et al., PRL, 2005) • No conclusive result is known

  13. Singleton Attractor (or Point Attractor) • Biological interpretation of attractors • Different attractors　⇔　Different cell types • Point attractor • Attractor with period 1 • Corresponding to a steady state • Definition: satisfying • Attractor Detection • Input: Boolean Network • Output: Point Attractor (if any) （or, 　 　　　　　　　　　）

  14. Attractor Detection: Previous Works • Around time is enough since there are2n global states • But, it cannot be applied to largen • Several heuristics are known, but no theoretical guarantee [Irons, Pysica D, 2006], [Devloo et al., Bull. Math. Biol. 2003], … • Detection of a singleton attractor is NP-hard [Akutsu et al., GIW 1998] • We developed algorithms with average case theoretical bounds[Zhang et al., EURASIP JBSB 2007] • We also developed time algorithms for AND-OR BNs [Tamura & Akutsu, FCT07, Trans. IEICE 2009] [Tamura & Akutsu, AB08, Math. in CS 2009] [Melkman, Tamura & Akutsu, 2010]

  15. Algorithms for Singleton Attractor Detection/Enumeration

  16. Singleton Attractor（=Attractor with Period 1) attractor attractor

  17. indegree＝２ indegree＝３ v v Indegree • Indegree = the number of input edges = the number of genes directly affecting node v • We use Kto denote the maximum indgree

  18. Simple Recursive Enumeration Algorithm (1) • Examine 0-1 assignment one-by-one, and backtrack as soon as some contradiction occurs [Zhang et al., EURASIP JBSB 2007]

  19. Illustration of Recursive Algorithm 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 1 0 0 0 1 Output

  20. Simple Recursive Enumeration Algorithm (2) • Examine 0-1 assignment one-by-one, and backtrack as soon as some contradiction occurs. • 0 • 00 　Ｘ　 backtrack • 01 • 010 　Ｘ　 backtrack • 011 　Ｘ　 backtrack • 10 • Several variants depending on ordering of nodes • Much better than trivial O(n2n) time

  21. Analysis of Average Case Time Complexity t=0 t=1 v1 • Probability that vi(0)≠vi(1)is detected when 0-1 assignment for first m bits is examined: • Probability that a random assignment for m bits is consistent (with def. of singleton attractor): • Expected number of consistent 0-1 assignments for m bits: • By taking the maximum of the above for m in [1…n] , we can estimate the complexity vm-1 vm vm+1 K

  22. ComputationalExperiment • Exponential increases, but bases are less than 2 Empirical Time Complexity

  23. Issues on Worst Case Time Complexity • Detection of a Singleton Attractor for BNs with indegree K (K+1)-SAT • O(1.322n) time for K=2 (randomized) • We developed O((1.322-δ)n) time algorithm for K=2 • Detection problem remains NP-hard even for K=2 • O(1.587n) time algorithm for BNs with AND/OR nodes (no constraint on K) [Melkman, Tamura & Akutsu, 2010]

  24. Reduction from BN-ATTRACTOR to SAT • Detection of Singleton Attractor with Max. Indegree K (K+1)-SAT (Boolean SATisfiability problem) vj vk vi

  25. Basic Idea in O(1.587n) Time Algorithm (A) (B) u • Consider recursive assignment of 0-1 values to nodes (A) v=0 ⇒ u=0, v=1 ⇒ w=1 (B) v=0 ⇒ u=0 and w=1 • Letf(k) be #(assignments) for BN with k variables • By solving the above (like Fibonacci number), f(k) is O(1.4656n) • However, above procedure cannot be applied to all cases (e.g., not to bipartite networks)  combination with SAT is required O(1.587n) time u v v w All nodes are OR NOT input w

  26. Attractor Detection: Previous Works (2) Singleton Attractors Cyclic Attractors (Recursive, Average Case)

  27. Control of Boolean Network

  28. BN-Control: Previous Works • Datta et al. defined a problem of control of PBN (Probabilistic Extension of BN) and proposed a dynamic programming based method • They also proposed various extensions • But, their method must handle 2n×2n matrices • BN-Control (also PBN-Control) is NP-hard • BN-Control can be solved in polynomial time if the network has a tree structure [Akutsu et al., JTB 2007] • Practical approach based on Model Checking/SAT [Langmund & Jha, APBC 2008, JBCB 2009] • Theoretical studies using Semi-Tensor Product [Cheng, 2009] [Machine Learning, 52:169-191, 2003]

  29. Definition of BN-Control • Input • Internal nodes: v1 ,…, vn External nodes：u1 ,…, um • Initial state:v0Desired state: vMBN • Output • Sequence of states of external nodes：u(0), u(1), …, u(M) • v(0)=v0, v(M)=vM　　　（leading to the desired state at time M） [Akutsu et al., J. Theo. Biol. 2007]

  30. Dynamic Programming for Control of BN • BN version of the algorithm by Datta et al. • DP table: • takes 1 if there is a control seq. leading to the target state • can be computed by

  31. Illustration of DP Algorithm D[1,1,1, 2] =1 D[0,0,0, 2] = 0 u1=1, u2=1 DP Computation D[0,1,1, 3] = 1 But, the size of DP table is exponential

  32. Integer Linear Programming-Based Approach

  33. Integer Programming • Linear Programming (LP) • Maximize (or minimize) an objective linear function under constraints of linear inequalities • Integer Linear Programming (ILP) • LP + constraints that specified variables must take integer value • Several efficient solvers: CPLEX, Gurobi • Used for solving various NP-hard problems

  34. ILP for Attractor Detection (1) xi: state of vi

  38. Summary

  39. Summary • Boolean network • A discrete model of a genetic network • Similar to digital circuits • Attractor Detection/Enumeration • NP-hard • Much better than a naïve O(2n) bound for bounded indegree cases • Identification of cyclic attractors is more difficult • Control of Boolean networks • NP-hard • Can be solved by DP algorithm (but, in exponential time) • Integer Linear Programming-based Approach • Simple • Flexible for modifications/extensions • Fast if indegree ≦ 2
