Complex Network Approach to Human Promoter Sequences
arXiv:q-bio/0508018
Abstract
Based upon the correlation matrix of the human promoter sequences, a complex network is constructed to capture the principal relationships between these promoters. It is a complex network has the properties of the right-skewed degree distribution and the clustering simultaneously, i.e., a hierarchical structure. An eigenvector centrality (EC) based method is used to reconstruct this hierarchical structure.
