Abstract:
In this work, we used Perturbation Theory (PT) techniques to define a linear model for metabolic pathway networks of >40 organisms compiled by Barabasis’ group. We calculated PT operators for 150000 pairs of nodes (metabolites) using Markov linear indices fk. The linear CPTML model obtained predicts network topology with values of accuracy, specificity, and sensitivity in the range of 85-100% in both training and external validation data series.
