• Abstract: In the domain of network biology, the interactions among heterogeneous genomic and molecular entities are represented through networks. Link prediction (LP) methodologies are instrumental in inferring missing or prospective associations within these biological networks. In this review, we systematically dissect the attributes of local, centrality, and embedding-based LP approaches, applied to static and dynamic biological networks. We undertake an examination of the current applications of LP metrics for predicting links between diseases, genes, proteins, RNA, microbiomes, drugs, and neurons. We carry out comprehensive performance evaluations on established biological network datasets to show the practical applications of standard LP models. Moreover, we compare the similarity in prediction trends among the models and the specific network attributes that contribute to effective link prediction, before underscoring the role of LP in addressing the formidable challenges prevalent in biological systems, ranging from noise, bias, and data sparseness to interpretability. We conclude the review with an exploration of the essential characteristics expected from future LP models, poised to advance our comprehension of the intricate interactions governing biological systems.

  We aim to develop flexible identification conditions for multimodal data. We establish identifiability guarantees for each latent component, extending the subspace identification results from prior work. Our key theoretical ingredient is the structural sparsity of the causal connections among distinct modalities.

• Network-based Neighborhood regression [0.0]
  Current statistical analysis on biological modules focuses on either detecting the functional modules in biological networks or sub-group regression on the biological features without using the network data. This paper proposes a novel network-based neighborhood regression framework whose regression functions depend on both the global community-level information and local connectivity structures among entities.

It maintains consistent and robust semantics by smoothing relations around the target interaction.

  We introduce the framework of generative flow networks (GFlowNets) to tackle two core problems in phylogenetics: parsimony-based and phylogenetic inference. Because GFlowNets are well-suited for sampling complex structures, they are a natural choice for exploring and sampling from the multimodal posterior distribution over tree topologies. We demonstrate that our amortized posterior sampler, PhyloGFN, produces diverse and high-quality evolutionary hypotheses on real benchmark datasets.
