Correlation networks have been used in biological networks to analyze and model high-throughput biological data, such as gene expression from microarray or RNA-seq assays. Typically in biological network modeling, structures can be mined from these networks that represent biological functions; for example, a cluster of proteins in an interactome can represent a protein complex. In correlation networks built from high-throughput gene expression data, it has often been speculated or even assumed that clusters represent sets of genes that are coregulated. This research aims to validate this concept using network systems biology and data mining by identification of correlation network clusters …

High throughput biological experiments are critical for their role in systems biology – the ability to survey the state of cellular mechanisms on the broad scale opens possibilities for the scientific researcher to understand how multiple components come together, and what goes wrong in disease states. However, the data returned from these experiments is massive and heterogeneous, and requires intuitive and clever computational algorithms for analysis. The correlation network model has been proposed as a tool for modeling and analysis of this high throughput data; structures within the model identified by graph theory have been found to represent key players …
