Figure reports the pipeline of the proposed use of DCN to compare expression gene data using causal network analysis. We start by considering the gene expression of males and females. First, we separate the groups, and we apply a causal discovery algorithm for building a causal network. Corresponding pairs of causal networks are then compared to obtain a single Differential Causal Network. The process is repeated for each considered tissue.
