Using Gene Expression Modeling to Determine Biological Relevance of Putative Regulatory Networks
Identifying gene regulatory networks from high-throughput gene expression data is one of the most important goals of bioinformatics, but it remains difficult to define what makes a...

Analysis of Cis-Regulatory Motifs in Cassette Exons by Incorporating Exon Skipping Rates
Identification of cis-regulatory motifs has long been a hotspot in the study of alternative splicing. We propose a two-step approach: we first identify k-mer seed motifs by testing...

Prediction of Contiguous Regions in the Amniote Ancestral Genome
Abstract. We investigate the problem of inferring contiguous ancestral regions (CARs) of the genome of the last common ancestor of all extant amniotes, based on the currently seque...

Untangling Tanglegrams: Comparing Trees by Their Drawings
A tanglegram is a pair of trees on the same set of leaves with matching leaves in the two trees joined by an edge. Tanglegrams are widely used in biology – to compare evolutiona...

A Linear-Time Algorithm for Analyzing Array CGH Data Using Log Ratio Triangulation
Abstract. DNA copy number is the number of replicates of a contiguous segment of DNA on the genome. Copy number alteration (CNA) is a genetic abnormality in which the number of the...

Mean Square Residue Biclustering with Missing Data and Row Inversions
Cheng and Church proposed a greedy deletion-addition algorithm to find a given number of k biclusters, whose mean squared residues (MSRs) are below certain thresholds and the miss...
