Book Analysis of Deterministic Cyclic Gene Regulatory Network Models with Delays

Download or read book Analysis of Deterministic Cyclic Gene Regulatory Network Models with Delays written by Mehmet Eren Ahsen and published by Birkhäuser. This book was released on 2015-02-25 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This brief examines a deterministic, ODE-based model for gene regulatory networks (GRN) that incorporates nonlinearities and time-delayed feedback. An introductory chapter provides some insights into molecular biology and GRNs. The mathematical tools necessary for studying the GRN model are then reviewed, in particular Hill functions and Schwarzian derivatives. One chapter is devoted to the analysis of GRNs under negative feedback with time delays and a special case of a homogenous GRN is considered. Asymptotic stability analysis of GRNs under positive feedback is then considered in a separate chapter, in which conditions leading to bi-stability are derived. Graduate and advanced undergraduate students and researchers in control engineering, applied mathematics, systems biology and synthetic biology will find this brief to be a clear and concise introduction to the modeling and analysis of GRNs.

Book On the Role of Delays in Biological Systems

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work quantifies the nature of delays in genetic regulatory networks and their effect on system dynamics. It is known that a time lag can emerge from a sequence of biochemical reactions. Applying this modeling framework to the protein production processes, delay distributions are derived in a stochastic (probability density function) and deterministic setting (impulse function), whilst being shown to be equivalent under different assumptions. The dependence of the distribution properties on rate constants, gene length, and time-varying temperatures is investigated. Overall, the distribution of the delay in the context of protein production processes is shown to be highly dependent on the size of the genes and mRNA strands as well as the reaction rates. Results suggest longer genes have delay distributions with a smaller relative variance, and hence, less uncertainty in the completion times, however, they lead to larger delays. On the other hand large uncertainties may actually play a positive role, as broader distributions can lead to larger stability regions when this formalization of the protein production delays is incorporated into a feedback system. Furthermore, evidence suggests that delays may play a role as an explicit design into existing controlling mechanisms. Accordingly, the reccurring dual-feedback motif is also investigated with delays incorporated into the feedback channels. The dual-delayed feedback is shown to have stabilizing effects through a control theoretic approach. Lastly, a distributed delay based controller design method is proposed as a potential design tool. In a preliminary study, the dual-delayed feedback system re-emerges as an effective controller design.

Book Evolutionary Algorithms  Swarm Dynamics and Complex Networks

Download or read book Evolutionary Algorithms Swarm Dynamics and Complex Networks written by Ivan Zelinka and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-11-25 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Evolutionary algorithms constitute a class of well-known algorithms, which are designed based on the Darwinian theory of evolution and Mendelian theory of heritage. They are partly based on random and partly based on deterministic principles. Due to this nature, it is challenging to predict and control its performance in solving complex nonlinear problems. Recently, the study of evolutionary dynamics is focused not only on the traditional investigations but also on the understanding and analyzing new principles, with the intention of controlling and utilizing their properties and performances toward more effective real-world applications. In this book, based on many years of intensive research of the authors, is proposing novel ideas about advancing evolutionary dynamics towards new phenomena including many new topics, even the dynamics of equivalent social networks. In fact, it includes more advanced complex networks and incorporates them with the CMLs (coupled map lattices), which are usually used for spatiotemporal complex systems simulation and analysis, based on the observation that chaos in CML can be controlled, so does evolution dynamics. All the chapter authors are, to the best of our knowledge, originators of the ideas mentioned above and researchers on evolutionary algorithms and chaotic dynamics as well as complex networks, who will provide benefits to the readers regarding modern scientific research on related subjects.

Book Gene Regulatory Network Reconstruction Using Time delayed S system Model

Download or read book Gene Regulatory Network Reconstruction Using Time delayed S system Model written by Ahsan Chowdhury and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 412 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The advent of microarray technology and the availability of high-throughput timeseries gene expression data has gradually led to the emergence of system biologists' proficiency in determining cellular dynamics, thus enabling the reverse engineering of Gene Regulatory Networks (GRNs). However, the curse of dimensionality, i.e., very few observations available for a large number of genes, is still considered one of the key factors affecting the inferring of GRNs from time-series data. Amongst the available models to infer GRNs, S-system formalism is considered to be an excellent compromise between accuracy and mathematical flexibility. Although the S-system model has the ability to represent the regulations very accurately, due to the higher numberof parameters, it is currently limited to reconstructing small-and medium-scale GRNs. Evolutionary algorithms, a sub-field of computational intelligence, have been widely used for optimization in reverse engineering GRNs (and specifically with the S-system model) because of its computational simplicity and its capacity to cater difficult and intractable problems. As one of its objectives, this research aims to develop efficient evolutionary optimization techniques for S-system based GRN modeling.For implementing evolutionary optimization, Differential Evolution (DE) and its variants show promise in the complex multi-modal search landscape which exist during the process of reverse engineering GRNs. However, considering that for large-scale GRNs the performance of DE can deteriorate and cause the algorithm to frequently stall or become stuck in local minima, as the first step to achieve the objective of efficient algorithm design, we incorporate the domain knowledge in the initial population generation and a new mutation operation (Flip Operation or FO) in the optimization process. Incorporation of knowledge allows the population to commencewith good seeds, while the proposed FO allows the optimization to search for global solutions by not getting potentially trapped in local minima. A refinement algorithm is also included as a post-processing operation to eliminate possible false regulations from the near optimal candidate solutions.Further, domain knowledge is also incorporated to develop a novel cardinality based fitness criteria that is motivated with the biologically relevant power-law distribution of genes' in-degrees. The adaptive nature of the maximum and minimum in-degrees allows dynamic reduction of search space, thereby resulting in a skeletal structure of the network with accurate parameters values. In other words, the new approach improves the search technique and reaches the solution more quickly compared to the existing methods in the literature. The cardinality values are updated adaptively to further narrow down the search space to obtain superior results quickly.In addition, the method is further improvised so that it can cope with the absence of microRNA (miRNA) expression profiles during the inference process. A critical analysis is also presented on the influence of miRNAs regulations on the GRN, in spite of a lack of miRNA data.Since the traditional S-system models genetic interactions with non-time-delayed ordinary differential equations, all reverse engineering methods using the S-system model can only infer instantaneous regulations. Thus, time-delayed regulations, whose existence is obvious in the GRNs, are either missed completely or these are inferred with incorrect regulatory weight and/or direction by the existing methods. In this research, by including time-delays to be part of the S-system parameters, a novel time-delayed S-system (TDSS) model is proposed to overcome limitations of the existing S-system model. Moreover, we have further improved our inference method developed earlier to reconstruct the network by simultaneously inferring instantaneous andtime-delayed regulations present in the GRNs.Due to the large number of parameters to infer, the current state-of-the-art S-system modeling approaches are limited to reconstructing small-and medium-scale GNRs. Exploiting the biological interactions of a GRN and the knowledge about genes, we show that a GRN can be naturally decoupled and incorporated in our proposed time-delayed S-system modeling. In the process, the previous fitness function is also enhanced to work more effectively to infer model parameters (including time-delays) of very large-scale GRNs. We also demonstrate how a domain knowledgebasedclustering technique can be applied to develop a local search procedure that is very effective while inferring regulations of large-scale GRNs.
