Artificial neural network (ANN) is nowadays one of the most used and researched computational methods. In the field of biocomputing, however, synthetic biologists are still using logic gate technologies to design genetic circuits. We here propose and computationally validate a novel method to mimic ANN with genetic circuits. We first describe the flow and the mathematical expression of this genetic circuit design and then we provide in silico proof to support the functionality of our method in regression and classification analyses. We believe that this de novo genetic circuit design method would have wide applications in biotechnology.

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
