Abstract

This chapter describes the model of genetic regulatory interactions. The model has a Boolean logic semantics representing the cooperative influence of regulators (activators and inhibitors) on the expression of a gene. The model is a probabilistic one, hence allowing for the statistical learning to infer the genetic interactions from microarray gene expression data. Bayesian approach to model inference is employed enabling flexible definitions of a priori probability distributions of the model parameters. Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) simulation technique Gibbs sampling is used to facilitate Bayesian inference. The problem of identifying actual regulators of a gene from a high number of potential regulators is considered as a Bayesian variable selection task. Strategies for the definition of parameters reducing the parameter space and efficient MCMC sampling methods are the matter of the current research.
