Illustration of SEREND method.

The SEmi-supervised REgulatory Network Discoverer (SEREND) is a semi-supervised learning method that uses a curated database of verified transcriptional factor-gene interactions, DNA sequence binding motifs, and a compendium of gene expression data in order to make thousands of new predictions about transcription factor-gene interactions, including whether the transcription factor activates or represses the gene.
