Background: The availability of various "omics" datasets creates a prospect of performing the study of genomewide genetic regulatory networks. However, one of the major ...
Background: We have recently introduced a predictive framework for studying gene transcriptional regulation in simpler organisms using a novel supervised learning algorithm called...
