Genetic interactions affecting human gene expression identified by variance association mapping
Non-additive interaction between genetic variants, or epistasis, is a possible explanation for the gap between heritability of complex traits and the variation explained by identified genetic loci.

Multi-Relation Aware Temporal Interaction Network Embedding [PDF]
Temporal interaction networks are formed in many fields, e.g., e-commerce, online education, and social network service. Temporal interaction network embedding can effectively mine the information in temporal interaction networks, which is of great significance to the above fields.

Optimizing higher-order network topology for synchronization of coupled phase oscillators [PDF]
Networks in nature have complex interactions among agents. One significant phenomenon induced by interactions is synchronization of coupled agents, and the interactive network topology can be tuned to optimize synchronization. The previous studies showed that the optimized conventional network with pairwise interactions favors a homogeneous degree ...

Dominant couplings in qubit networks with controlled interactions [PDF]
Systems evolving under the influence of competing two-body and three-body interactions, are of particular interest in exploring the stability of equilibrium states of strongly interacting many-body system. We present a solvable model based on qubit networks, which allows us to investigate the intricate influence of these couplings on the possible ...
