摘要
Recent trend on biological data at a molecular level is omics data analysis for both bulk and single cells, in eluding genomics, proteomics, metabolomics, and epigenetics data (Wang and Zhang, 2017;Zhang et al., 2017;Zhao and Li, 2017;Cheng and Leung, 2018). Rapid accumulation of such high-dimensional biological data is driving the system-level study from describing complex phenomena to understanding molecular mechanisms (Park et al., 2018;Sun et al., 2018) and from analyzi ng in dividual components to understanding their networks and systems (Chen et al., 2009;Chen, 2017).
