Inferring Gene Regulatory Networks Using Bayesian Inference

Hello everyone,

Does anyone know of any R packages that can be used to infer gene regulatory networks from expression data using Bayesian inference?

Thanks!

if you have a time series, how about GRENITS?

or BIRTA?

Thanks for your answer Nathan. Have you used these packages before? because I have a question regarding the input data. My data has a time series at 3,5 and 7 hrs and each time point has a control and treatment condition and we have 3 replicates of control and treatment experiments at each time point. All data is normalized. Should I use the values of all replicates or mean of the triplicates for building the network? Thanks!
