An algorithm to analyze stability of gene-expression patterns Original Research Article

Many problems in the field of computational biology consist of the analysis of so-called gene-expression data. The successful application of approximation and optimization techniques, dynamical systems, algorithms and the utilization of the underlying combinatorial structures lead to a better understanding in that field. For the concrete example of gene-expression data we extend an algorithm, which exploits discrete information. This is lying in extremal points of polyhedra, which grow step by step, up to a possible stopping.
