The invention belongs to the field of
bioinformatics, and relates to a high-precision
elastic network transcription factor targeting relationship prediction method. The method comprises the following steps: firstly, acquiring
single cell transcriptome sequencing data, and extracting a
gene expression matrix and potential
transcription factor information; secondly, constructing a high-resolution latent time grid, and performing fine-grained division on a single
cell cycle; secondly, introducing an
elastic network hybrid regularization mechanism, performing sparsification on the
gene expression model by using L1 regularization, and meanwhile, retaining core
transcription factor characteristics with a collaborative regulation effect by using L2 regularization; then, carrying out iterative optimization based on an
RNA kinetic equation, and calculating a regulation weight of a transcription factor on a
target gene and a cytodynamic rate; and finally, outputting a high-confidence-coefficient
gene regulatory network atlas. According to the method, high-precision, high-robustness and anti-
noise targeting relation prediction is realized, and an important calculation and analysis tool is provided for revealing a gene regulation and control mechanism of a
cell development bottom layer and accurately searching key
disease targets.
