Motivation
Inferring the structure of gene regulatory networks from high-throughput datasets remains an important and unsolved problem. Current methods are hampered by problems such as noise, low sample size, and incomplete characterizations of regulatory dynamics, leading to networks with missing and anomalous links. Integration of prior network information (e.g. from pathway databases) has the potential to improve reconstructions.

Time-lagged Ordered Lasso for network inference
- Biology, Computer ScienceBMC Bioinformatics

A semi-supervised method that embeds prior network information into the Ordered Lasso to discover novel regulatory dependencies in existing pathways is developed and evaluated on simulated data for a repressilator, time-course data from past DREAM challenges, and a HeLa cell cycle dataset to show that they can produce accurate networks subject to the dynamics and assumptions of the time-lagged Ordering Lasso regression.
