Improved inference of gene regulatory networks through integrated Bayesian clustering and dynamic modeling of time-course expression data.

Inferring gene regulatory networks from expression data is difficult, but it is common and often useful. Most network problems are under-determined--there are more parameters than data points--and therefore data or parameter set reduction is often necessary. Correlation between variables in the mode...
