The goal of this thesis is the discovery of a bioinformatics solution for network-based predictive analysis of NGS data, in which network structures can substitute gene lists as a more rich and complex signature of disease. I have focused on methods for network stability, network inference and network comparison, as additional components of the pipeline and as methods to detects outliers in high-throughput datasets. Besides a first work on GEO datasets, the main application of my pipeline has been on original data from the FDA SEQC (Sequencing Quality Control)project. Here I will report some initial findings to which I have contributed with methods and analysis: as the corresponding papers are being submitted. My goal is to provide a comprehensive tool for network reconstruction and network comparison as an R package and user-friendly web service interface available on-line at https://renette.fbk.eu The goal of this thesis is the discovery of a bioinformatics solution for network-based predictive analysis of NGS data, in which network structures can substitute gene lists as a more rich and complex signature of disease.
