New thesis offers dual frameworks for gene regulatory network inference

A new thesis introduces two frameworks for inferring gene regulatory networks (GRNs). The first, PMF-GRN, uses probabilistic graphical models and variational inference to provide uncertainty-aware estimates and principled model selection. The second, GLM-Prior, fine-tunes the Nucleotide Transformer to predict TF-target gene interactions directly from nucleotide sequences, generalizing across species. These methods aim to overcome limitations in current GRN reconstruction, such as heuristic model selection and the difficulty of transferring prior knowledge. AI

IMPACT Introduces novel computational frameworks for biological network inference, potentially advancing research in genomics and systems biology.

    Deep and Probabilistic Models for Gene Regulatory Network Inference

    arXiv:2607.16053v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Gene regulatory networks (GRNs) link transcription factor (TF) proteins to their target genes, yet reconstructing these networks from genome-wide data remains challenging under practical and methodological constraints. Many methods …
