A Bayesian network to model gene response with gene categories. Gene categories, or terms (Inline graphic, ellipses) can be either on or off. Terms that are on activate the hidden state (Inline graphic, rectangles) of all genes annotated to them, the other genes remain off. The observed states (Inline graphic, diamonds) of the genes are noisy observations of their true hidden state. The parameters of the model (light gray nodes) are the prior probability of each term to be active, Inline graphic, the false positive rate, Inline graphic and the false negative rate, Inline graphic.
