Abstract

Time delayed factor is one of the most important characteristics of gene regulatory network. Most research focused on reverse engineering of time-delayed gene regulatory network. In this paper, time-delayed S-system (TDSS) model is used to infer time-delayed regulatory network. An improved gene expression programming (GEP), named restricted GEP (RGEP) is proposed as a new representation of the TDSS model. A hybrid evolutionary method, based on structure-based evolutionary algorithm and new hybrid particle swarm optimization, is used to optimize the architecture and parameters of TDSS model. Experimental result reveals that our method could identify time-delayed gene regulatory network accurately.
