The inference of Gene Regulatory Networks (GRNs) is a very challenging problem which has attracted increasing attention since the development of high-throughput sequencing and gene expression measurement technologies. Many models and algorithms have been developed to identify GRNs using mainly gene expression profile as data source. As the gene expression data usually has limited number of samples and inherent noise, the integration of gene expression with several other sources of information can be vital for accurately inferring GRNs. For instance, some prior information about the overall topological structure of the GRN can guide inference techniques toward better results. In addition to gene expression data, recently biological information from heterogeneous data sources have been integrated by GRN inference methods as well. The objective of this chapter is to present an overview of GRN inference models and techniques with focus on incorporation of prior information such as, global and local topological features and integration of several heterogeneous data sources.

There exist many heterogeneous data sources that are closely related to gene regulatory networks. These data sources provide rich information for depicting complex biological processes at different levels and from different aspects. Here, we introduce a linear programming framework to infer the gene regulatory networks. Within this framework, we extensively integrate the available information derived from multiple time-course expression datasets, ChIP-chip data, regulatory motif-binding patterns, protein-protein interaction data, protein-small molecule interaction data, and documented regulatory relationships in literature and databases. Results on synthetic and real experimental data both demonstrate that the linear programming framework allows us to recover gene regulations in a more robust and reliable manner.
