This study introduces an enhanced evolutionary algorithm to map gene regulatory networks and estimate kinetic parameters from gene expression data, improving network inference accuracy.

Area of Science:

  • Systems Biology
  • Computational Biology
  • Bioinformatics

Background:

  • Understanding gene regulatory networks (GRNs) is crucial for deciphering cellular mechanisms.
  • Inferring GRN structure and dynamics from time-series gene expression data remains a significant challenge.
  • Existing methods often struggle with accuracy and scalability for complex biological systems.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop an improved evolutionary algorithm for constructing GRN structures.
  • To infer accurate kinetic parameters from gene expression time-series data.
  • To apply the method to a real biological pathway for interaction analysis.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized decoupled S-system formalism for modeling gene expression dynamics.
  • Employed Trigonometric Differential Evolution (TDE) as the core optimization engine.
