Phenotype control of partially specified boolean networks Partially specified Boolean networks (PSBNs) represent a promising framework for the qualitative modelling of biological systems in which the logic of interactions is not completely known. Phenotype control aims to stabilise the network in states exhibiting specific traits. In this paper, we define the phenotype control problem in the context of asynchronous PSBNs and propose a novel semi-symbolic algorithm for solving this problem with permanent variable perturbations. 14137 18-35 18-35 Springer Nature application/pdf
