Motivation: Detailed mechanistic models of biological processes can pose significant challenges for analysis and parameter estimations due to the large number of equations used to track the dynamics of all distinct configurations in which each involved biochemical species can be found. Model reduction can help tame such complexity by providing a lower-dimensional model in which each macro-variable can be directly related to the original variables. Results: We present CLUE, an algorithm for exact model reduction of systems of polynomial differential equations by constrained linear lumping. It computes the smallest dimensional reduction as a linear mapping of the state space such that the reduced model preserves the dynamics of user-specified linear combinations of the original variables. Even though CLUE works with nonlinear differential equations, it is based on linear algebra tools, which makes it applicable to high-dimensional models. Using case studies from the literature, we show how CLUE can substantially lower model dimensionality and help extract biologically intelligible insights from the reduction. Availability: An implementation of the algorithm and relevant resources to replicate the experiments herein reported are freely available for download at https://github.com/pogudingleb/CLUE.

Motivation: Stochastic reaction networks are a widespread model to describe biological systems where the presence of noise is relevant, such as in cell regulatory processes. Unfortu-nately, in all but simplest models the resulting discrete state-spac
HYPERDIRE is a project devoted to the creation of a set of Mathematica-based programs for the differential reduction of hypergeometric functions. The current version allows for manipulations involving the full set of Horn-type hypergeometric functions of two variables, including 30 functions.
We present a further extension of the HYPERDIRE project, which is devoted to the creation of a set of Mathematica-based program packages for manipulations with Horn-type hypergeometric functions on the basis of differential equations. Specifically, w
The differential-reduction algorithm, which allows one to express generalized hypergeometric functions with parameters of arbitrary values in terms of such functions with parameters whose values differ from the original ones by integers, is discussed
Non-conding RNAs play a key role in the post-transcriptional regulation of mRNA translation and turnover in eukaryotes. miRNAs, in particular, interact with their target RNAs through protein-mediated, sequence-specific binding, giving rise to extende
