Inferring the relationships between transcription factors (TFs) and their targets has utmost importance for understanding the complex regulatory mechanisms in cellular systems. However, the transcription factor activities (TFAs) cannot be measured directly by standard microarray experiment owing to various post-translational modifications. In particular, cooperative mechanism and combinatorial control are common in gene regulation, e.g. TFs usually recruit other proteins cooperatively to facilitate transcriptional reaction processes.
