Abstract:Genes regulate each other and form a gene regulatory network (GRN) to realise biological functions. Elucidating GRN from experimental data remains a challenging problem in systems biology. Numerous techniques have been developed and sparse linear regression methods become a promising approach to infer accurate GRNs. However, most linear methods are either based on steady‐state gene expression data or their statistical properties are not analysed. Here, two sparse penalties, adaptive least absolute shrinkage and selection operator and smoothly clipped absolute deviation, are proposed to infer GRNs from time‐course gene expression data based on an auto‐regressive model and their Oracle properties are proved under mild conditions. The effectiveness of those methods is demonstrated by applications to in silico and real biological data.Inspec keywords: genetics, autoregressive processesOther keywords: sparse penalties, gene regulatory networks, time‐course gene expression data, GRN, biological functions, systems biology, sparse linear regression methods, steady‐state gene expression data, adaptive least absolute shrinkage, selection operator, smoothly clipped absolute deviation, autoregressive model, Oracle properties
