Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Abstract A common depiction for biological signaling networks is the influence graph in which the activation and inhibition effects between molecular species are shown with vertices and arcs connecting them. Another formalism for reaction-based models is the Petri nets which has a graphical representation and a mathematical notation that enables structural analysis and quantitative simulation. In this paper, we present an algorithm based on Petri nets topological features for the transformation of the computational model of a biological signaling network into an annotated influence graph. We also show the transformation of the Petri nets model of the beta-adrenergic receptor activating the PKA-MAPK signaling network into its representation as an influence graph.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
