The optimization problem aiming at the identification of minimal sets of nodes able to drive
the dynamics of Boolean networks toward desired long-term behaviors is central for some …

Quorum-sensing systems play important roles in host colonization and host establishment of
Burkholderiales species. Beneficial Paraburkholderia species share a conserved quorum …

Networks are useful descriptions of the structure of many complex systems. Unsurprisingly, it
is thus important to analyze the robustness of networks in many scientific disciplines. In …

The eukaryotic cell cycle is robustly designed, with interacting molecules organized within a
definite topology that ensures temporal precision of its phase transitions. Its underlying …

A common gene regulatory network model is the threshold Boolean network, used for
example to model the Arabidopsis thaliana floral morphogenesis network or the fission yeast …

An evolutionary computation framework to learn binary threshold networks is presented.
Inspired by the recent trend of binary neural networks, where weights and activation …

Salinity is one of the main problems in agriculture, negatively influencing the survival,
biomass production, and yield of food crops. Exposure to high salinity is connected with …

Inspired by the resent trend of binary neural net-works, where weights and activation
thresholds are represented using 1 and− 1 such that they can be stored in 1-bit instead of …

In this paper, we deal with the following decision problem: given a conjunctive Boolean
network defined by its interaction digraph, does it have a limit cycle of a given length k? We …

Boolean networks have been widely used as models for gene regulatory networks, signal
transduction networks, or neural networks, among many others. One of the main difficulties …
