A New Method to Infer Causal Phenotype Networks Using QTL and Phenotypic Information
In the context of genetics and breeding research on multiple phenotypic traits, reconstructing the directional or causal structure between phenotypic traits is a prerequisite for quantifying the effects of genetic interventions on the traits. Current approaches mainly exploit the genetic effects at quantitative trait loci (QTLs) to learn about causal relationships among phenotypic traits. A req...
متن کاملUsing Causal Information and Local Measures to Learn Bayesian Networks
In previous work we developed a method of learning Bayesian Network models from raw data This method relies on the well known minimal description length MDL principle The MDL principle is particularly well suited to this task as it allows us to tradeo in a principled way the accuracy of the learned network against its practical usefulness In this paper we present some new results that have aris...
متن کاملUsing Dynamic Noise Propagation to Infer Causal Regulatory Relationships in Biochemical Networks
Cellular decision making is accomplished by complex networks, the structure of which has traditionally been inferred from mean gene expression data. In addition to mean data, quantitative measures of distributions across a population can be obtained using techniques such as flow cytometry that measure expression in single cells. The resulting distributions, which reflect a population's variabil...
متن کاملNetwork Infusion to Infer Information Sources in Networks
Several models exist for diffusion of signals across biological, social, or engineered networks. However, the inverse problem of identifying the source of such propagated information appears more difficult even in the presence of multiple network snapshots, and especially for the singlesnapshot case, given the many alternative, often similar, progression of diffusion that may lead to the same o...
متن کاملCausal Phenotype Discovery via Deep Networks
The rapid growth of digital health databases has attracted many researchers interested in using modern computational methods to discover and model patterns of health and illness in a research program known as computational phenotyping. Much of the work in this area has focused on traditional statistical learning paradigms, such as classification, prediction, clustering, pattern mining. In this ...
