摘 要:

In this report, I will present how to use model-driven and data-driven strategies to model and predict gene relationship network behavior and structure. Specifically, I will first introduce how we modeled and quantified a three-node ceRNA minimal network using differential equations and synthetic gene circuits. Secondly, to deal with large scale networks, we used deep learning to infer pairwise gene interaction and causality with an image-like joint PDF input and it was found that the two above approaches can get similar new discoveries. Thirdly, I will mention how to infer extracellular gene relationship with additional spatial information. Finally, I plan to discuss future work that how to combine the two strategies to extend network studies, especially on complex network behavior prediction and control.
