Boolean networks are dynamical models of disease development in which the activation levels of genes are represented by binary variables. Given a Boolean network, controls represent mutations or medical treatments that fix the activation…
Boolean Networks (BNs) serve as a fundamental modeling framework for capturing complex dynamical systems across various domains, including systems biology, computational logic, and artificial intelligence. A crucial property of BNs is the…
In the applications of Boolean networks to modeling biological systems, an important computational problem is the detection of the fixed points of these networks. This is an NP-complete problem in general. There have been various attempts…
Boolean networks model finite discrete dynamical systems with complex behaviours. The state of each component is determined by a Boolean function of the state of (a subset of) the components of the network. This paper addresses the…
As shown in (http://dx.doi.org/10.1101/2020.03.22.998377), the usual update modes of Boolean networks (BNs), including synchronous and (generalized) asynchronous, fail to capture behaviors introduced by multivalued refinements. Thus, update…
The tool mpbn offers a Python programming interface for an easy interactive editing of Boolean networks and the efficient computation of elementary properties of their dynamics, including fixed points, trap spaces, and reachability…
A Boolean network (BN) with $n$ components is a discrete dynamical system described by the successive iterations of a function $f:\{0,1\}^n \to \{0,1\}^n$. This model finds applications in biology, where fixed points play a central role.…
In the context of discrete dynamical systems and their applications, fixed points often have a clear interpretation. This is indeed a central topic of gene regulatory mechanisms modeled by Boolean automata networks (BANs), where a…
Previous work in Boolean dynamical networks has suggested that the number of components that must be controlled to select an existing attractor is typically set by the number of attractors admitted by the dynamics, with no dependence on the…
Regulatory networks (RNs) are a well-accepted modelling formalism in computational systems biology. The control of RNs is currently receiving a lot of attention because it provides a computational basis for cell reprogramming -- an…
This paper investigates the stabilization of probabilistic Boolean networks (PBNs) via a novel pinning control strategy based on network structure. In a PBN, the evolution equation of each gene switches among a collection of candidate…
Boolean networks are powerful mathematical tools for modeling the qualitative dynamics of genetic regulation. Yet inferred models often generate spurious attractors that lack biological viability. In this paper, we propose a parsimonious…
Biological processes, including cell differentiation, organism development, and disease progression, can be interpreted as attractors (fixed points or limit cycles) of an underlying networked dynamical system. In this paper, we study the…
Minimal trap spaces (MTSs) capture subspaces in which the Boolean dynamics is trapped, whatever the update mode. They correspond to the attractors of the most permissive mode. Due to their versatility, the computation of MTSs has recently…
We investigate how classifiers for Boolean networks (BNs) can be constructed and modified under constraints. A typical constraint is to observe only states in attractors or even more specifically steady states of BNs. Steady states of BNs…
A Boolean network (BN) is a discrete dynamical system defined by a Boolean function that maps to the domain itself. A trap space of a BN is a generalization of a fixed point, which is defined as the sub-hypercubes closed by the function of…
We develop a method for reconstructing regulatory interconnection networks between variables evolving according to a linear dynamical system. The work is motivated by the problem of gene regulatory network inference, that is, finding causal…
We study the problem of change point localization in dynamic networks models. We assume that we observe a sequence of independent adjacency matrices of the same size, each corresponding to a realization of an unknown inhomogeneous Bernoulli…
In this paper, we address the formal characterization of targets triggering cellular trans-differentiation in the scope of Boolean networks with asynchronous dynamics. Given two fixed points of a Boolean network, we are interested in all…
In systems biology, Boolean networks (BNs) aim at modeling the qualitative dynamics of quantitative biological systems. Contrary to their (a)synchronous interpretations, the Most Permissive (MP) interpretation guarantees capturing all the…
