background: one substantial part of microarray studies is to predict patients’ survival based on their gene expression profile. variable selection techniques are powerful tools to handle high dimensionality in analysis of microarray data. however, these techniques have not been investigated in competing risks setting. this study aimed to investigate the performance of four sparse variable selec...

understanding the genetic regulatory networks, the discovery of interactions between genes, and understanding regulatory processes in a cell at the gene level, is one of the major goals of system biology and computational biology. modeling gene regulatory networks, describing the actions of the cells at the molecular level and is used in medicine and molecular biology applications such as metab...
