Inferring a transcriptional regulatory network from gene expression data using nonlinear manifold embedding.

Transcriptional networks consist of multiple regulatory layers corresponding to the activity of global regulators, specialized repressors and activators as well as proteins and enzymes shaping the DNA template. Such intrinsic complexity makes uncovering connections difficult and it calls for corresp...
