Beschreibung Diseases can be caused by molecular perturbations that induce specific changes in regulatory
interactions and their coordinated expression, also referred to as network rewiring. The detection
of such complex changes in regulatory connections remains a challenging task. We have developed
a non-parametric ensemble method called BoostDiff (boosted differential regression trees) to infer
a differential network discriminating between two conditions. To build the differential trees, we
propose differential variance improvement as a novel splitting criterion. Variable importance
measures derived from the resulting models are used to reflect changes in gene expression
predictability and to build the output differential networks. In several examples, BoostDiff
identifies context-specific networks that are enriched with genes of known disease-relevant
pathways and complements standard differential expression analyses.
