TLDR
This review is intended to serve as both, a point of reference for experimental biologists looking for practical solutions for analyzing their data, and a starting point for computer scientists interested in working on the computational problems related to time series expression analysis.
Abstract
Motivation: Time series expression experiments are an increasingly popular method for studying a wide range of biological systems. However, when analyzing these experiments researchers face many new computational challenges. Algorithms that are specifically designed for time series experiments are required so that we can take advantage of their unique features (such as the ability to infer causality from the temporal response pattern) and address the unique problems they raise (e.g. handling the different non-uniform sampling rates). Results: We present a comprehensive review of the current research in time series expression data analysis. We divide the computational challenges into four analysis levels: experimental design, data analysis, pattern recognition and networks. For each of these levels, we discuss computational and biological problems at that level and point out some of the methods that have been proposed to deal with these issues. Many open problems in all these levels are discussed. This review is intended to serve as both, a point of reference for experimental biologists looking for practical solutions for analyzing their data, and a starting point for computer scientists interested in working on the computational problems related to time series expression analysis.

Curve fitting for short time series data from high throughput experiments with correction for biological variation

TL;DR: This paper proposes a regression model that can estimate corresponding parameters that can be used to correct measurement errors or deviations caused by biological variation in terms of a time shift, different reaction speed and different reaction intensity for replicates.

Missing Value Estimation for Time Series Microarray Data Using Linear Dynamical Systems Modeling

TL;DR: This work proposes modeling gene expression profiles as simple linear and Gaussian dynamical systems and applies the Kalman filter to estimate missing values and demonstrates the efficiency of this approach by evaluating its performance in estimating artificially introduced missing values in two different time series data sets.

Learning gene regulatory networks from gene expression data using weighted consensus

TL;DR: A linear programming-based consensus method for the inference of gene regulatory networks that assigns a weight to each method based on its credibility, suggesting that assigning weights to different individual methods rather than giving them equal weights improves the accuracy.

Cluster analysis and display of genome-wide expression patterns

TL;DR: A system of cluster analysis for genome-wide expression data from DNA microarray hybridization is described that uses standard statistical algorithms to arrange genes according to similarity in pattern of gene expression, finding in the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae that clustering gene expression data groups together efficiently genes of known similar function.

Molecular classification of cancer: class discovery and class prediction by gene expression monitoring.

TL;DR: A generic approach to cancer classification based on gene expression monitoring by DNA microarrays is described and applied to human acute leukemias as a test case and suggests a general strategy for discovering and predicting cancer classes for other types of cancer, independent of previous biological knowledge.

Comprehensive Identification of Cell Cycle–regulated Genes of the Yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae by Microarray Hybridization

TL;DR: A comprehensive catalog of yeast genes whose transcript levels vary periodically within the cell cycle is created, and it is found that the mRNA levels of more than half of these 800 genes respond to one or both of these cyclins.

Genomic expression programs in the response of yeast cells to environmental changes.

TL;DR: Analysis of genomic expression patterns in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae implicated the transcription factors Yap1p, as well as Msn2p and Msn4p, in mediating specific features of the transcriptional response, while the identification of novel sequence elements provided clues to novel regulators.

Broad patterns of gene expression revealed by clustering analysis of tumor and normal colon tissues probed by oligonucleotide arrays.

TL;DR: In this paper, a two-way clustering algorithm was applied to both the genes and the tissues, revealing broad coherent patterns that suggest a high degree of organization underlying gene expression in these tissues.
