Cells at different location have different fates in embryogenesis
trans-Regulation cis-Regulation
with some logical rules A network exists in the cis-regulatory elements
Constructing Relationshipsof Networks fromExpression and Perturbation Data Developing a computational platform which can inference networks automatically by experiment data
What is network ? • Network is commonly in organism. e.g. gene regulatory network, pathway, neuron network…etc. • Abstractly, network can defined as combinations of a group nodes and edges.
Our approach • Mining the relationship between nodes from expression curve and perturbation matrix. • Inference networks by the relationships we found.
