They correspond to the attractors of the most permissive mode. Due to their versatility, the computation of MTSs has recently gained traction, essentially by focusing on their enumeration. In this paper, we address the logical reasoning on universal properties of MTSs in the scope of two problems: the reprogramming of Boolean networks for identifying the permanent freeze of Boolean variables that enforce a given property on all the MTSs, and the synthesis of Boolean networks from universal properties on their MTSs. Both problems reduce to solving the satisfiability of quantified propositional logic formula with 3 levels of quantifiers ($existsforallexists$). In this paper, we introduce a Counter-Example Guided Refinement Abstraction (CEGAR) to efficiently solve these problems by coupling the resolution of two simpler formulas. We provide a prototype relying on Answer-Set Programming for each formula and show its tractability on a wide range of Boolean models of biological networks.","PeriodicalId":433620,"journal":{"name":"Computational Methods in Systems Biology","volume":"48 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128117369","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Roncalli, Loic Paulev'e","doi":"10.48550/arXiv.2206.12729","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.48550/arXiv.2206.12729","url":null,"abstract":". 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 trajectories of any quantitative system compatible with the BN, without additional parameters. Notably, the MP mode has the ability to capture transitions related to the heterogeneity of time scales and concentration scales in the abstracted quantitative system and which are not captured by asynchronous modes. So far, the analysis of MPBNs has focused on Boolean dynamical properties, such as the existence of particular trajectories or attractors. This paper addresses the sampling of trajectories from MPBNs in order to quantify the propensities of attractors reachable from a given initial BN configuration. The computation of MP transitions from a configuration is performed by iteratively discovering possible state changes. The number of iterations is referred to as the permissive depth , where the first depth corresponds to the asynchronous transitions. This permissive depth reflects the potential concentration and time scales heterogeneity along the abstracted quantitative process. The simulation of MPBNs is illustrated on several models from the literature, on which the depth parametrization can help to assess the robustness of predictions on attractor propensities changes triggered by model perturbations.","PeriodicalId":433620,"journal":{"name":"Computational Methods in Systems Biology","volume":"11 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-06-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115150832","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We propose a novel simulation scheme where long runs are not simulated as a whole but assembled from shorter precomputed segments of simulation runs. On the one hand, this speeds up the simulation process to obtain multiple runs since we can reuse the segments. On the other hand, questions on diversity and genuineness of our runs arise. However, we ensure that we generate runs close to their true distribution by generating an appropriate abstraction of the original system and utilizing it in the simulation process. Interestingly, as a by-product, we also obtain a yet more efficient simulation scheme, yielding runs over the system's abstraction. These provide a very faithful approximation of concrete runs on the desired level of granularity, at a low cost. Our experiments demonstrate the speedups in the simulations while preserving key dynamical as well as quantitative properties.","PeriodicalId":433620,"journal":{"name":"Computational Methods in Systems Biology","volume":"76 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-06-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127534531","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
