Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOSCILLATORY SYNTHETIC BIOLOGICAL SYSTEM CONSTRUCTION USING INTERACTIVE EVOLUTIONARY COMPUTATIONSQuang Huy Dinh, Nasimul Noman, Hitoshi IbaIn this study, we propose an Interactive Evolutionary Computation system to design gene networks for synthetic biology, of which the objective is to construct new organisms through the artificial synthesis of gene networks. Wet laboratories typically design gene networks through trial and error methods, which makes the construction of complex networks difficult. As a solution, automation can significantly improve the … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 12 · 14 Jan 2015 · 8,476 accessesView PDFCite
