1 Some network algorithms model TFs by including protein-DNA interactions in the network or generating TF scores for the protein nodes. 2 Some network algorithms optimize the transmission of information from source nodes to target nodes and require the sources to be identified in advance. 3 Time series analysis algorithms require omic data from three or more time points. 4 Intermediate proteins, like the Steiner nodes predicted by Forest, are not assigned condition-specific scores but are important for connecting other scored nodes in the subnetwork. 5 Negative evidence discourages network algorithms from selecting particular nodes due to prior knowledge or a bias, such as node degree.
