A Bayesian Network View on Nested Effects Models
Tóm tắt
Nested effects models (NEMs) are a class of probabilistic models that were designed to reconstruct a hidden signalling structure from a large set of observable effects caused by active interventions into the signalling pathway. We give a more flexible formulation of NEMs in the language of Bayesian networks. Our framework constitutes a natural generalization of the original NEM model, since it explicitly states the assumptions that are tacitly underlying the original version. Our approach gives rise to new learning methods for NEMs, which have been implemented in the
/Bioconductor package nem. We validate these methods in a simulation study and apply them to a synthetic lethality dataset in yeast.
