  • Extending differential expression concepts to genetic networks.
  • Developing five novel statistics for measuring differential regulation in genetic networks.

Main Results:

  • Successfully applied proposed models and algorithms to three datasets.
  • Demonstrated the ability of genetic networks to distinguish between different phenotypes using the generalized T2 statistic.
  • Introduced the concept of differentially regulated genetic networks to assess changes in gene regulation.

Conclusions:

  • Structural equations and genetic algorithms provide a robust framework for genetic network reconstruction.
  • Differential network analysis offers new insights into biological processes and disease mechanisms.
  • The proposed statistics enable a deeper understanding of gene regulatory changes and their functional consequences.
