Abstract
High throughput technologies transform the interest of single-gene and protein studies to the genome scale. Given the size and complexity of high-throughput data, dimension reduction is often used to simplify and visualize data. However, one obstacle to effective dimension reduction of complex gene expression matrix is the loss of true biological information caused by the pervasive correlation and interference of high measurement noise. To address these issues, we tried to incorporate existing knowledge as represented by known biological networks, by developing a new network-guided dimension reduction method. The effectiveness of this method was tested in both simulations and real gene expression data. The simulation results show the power of detecting major signal in large-scale network is high. The results from the real data analysis show the first few dimensions found by the method are dominated by meaningful biological signals. The network-guided dimensional reduction is an effective method that captures the main signals contained in the large data matrix.
