EGAN: exploratory gene association networks

Constructing Regulatory Networks from Gene Expression Data Using Association Rule Mining

Gene expression technology, such as high density DNA Microarray, allows us to monitor gene expression patterns at the genomic level. While this technology promises progress toward the understanding of transcriptional response and regulation, it also introduces the challenge of extracting relevant information from the large datasets generated. As a result, data mining of gene expression data has...

Reverse Engineering Genetic Networks using the GeneNet Package

GeneNet is a package for analyzing highdimensional (time series) data obtained from highthroughput functional genomics assays, such as expression microarrays or metabolic profiling. Specifically, GeneNet allows to infer large-scale gene association networks. These are graphical Gaussian models (GGMs) that represent multivariate dependencies in biomolecular networks by means of partial correlati...

Selected Summary of Information Superhighways: The Economics of Advanced Public Communication Networks

Ultimately, the U.S. will have a universal broadband network (UBN). Egan addresses transitional problems in his recent book, Infonnation Superhighways. First, we need to know the extent to which consumers would value a UBN network. Who should bear the risks associated with massive infrastructure investments? Next, there are questions about whether demand-pull technological progress will be rapi...

Towards constructing an Integrative, Multi-Level Model for Cognition: The Function of Semantic Networks

Integrated approaches try to connect different constructs in different theories and reinterpret them using a common conceptual framework. In this research, using the concept of processing levels, an integrated, three-level model of the cognitive systems has been proposed and evaluated. Processing levels are divided into three categories of Feature-Oriented, Semantic and Conceptual Level based o...
