ABSTRACT
Node-and-edge graphs are a foundational structure for recording,
visualizing and analyzing high-throughput genomics and proteomics
data. Like most data, systems biology observations generated by high-
throughput technologies are subject to measurement error and
therefore must be treated accordingly. Currently, most analyses
present only naive summary statistics of these observations. We
apply classic statistical modeling approaches for a variety of
problems, thereby improving inference on commonly reported graph
statistics, local features of interest in global graphs, and
plausible error probability bounds.
