dc.description.abstract |
Differential networks (DN) are important tools for modeling the changes in conditional
dependencies between multiple samples. A Bayesian approach for estimating DNs, from
the classical viewpoint, is introduced with a computationally efficient threshold selection for
graphical model determination. The algorithm separately estimates the precision matrices
of the DN using the Bayesian adaptive graphical lasso procedure. Synthetic experiments
illustrate that the Bayesian DN performs exceptionally well in numerical accuracy and graphical structure determination in comparison to state of the art methods. The proposed method
is applied to South African COVID-19 data to investigate the change in DN structure
between various phases of the pandemic. |
