;;; dds/networks
;;; This module provides some quick definitions for and analysing
;;; network models. A network is a set of variables which are updated
;;; according to their corresponding update functions. The variables
;;; to be updated at each step are given by the mode.
;;;
;;; This model can generalise Boolean networks, TBANs, multivalued
;;; networks, etc.

;;; Inferring interaction graphs
;;; ============================
;;; I allow any syntactic forms in definitions of Boolean functions.
;;; I can still find out which Boolean variables appear in those
;;; syntactic form, but I have no reliable syntactic means of finding
;;; out what kind of action do they have (inhibition or activation)
;;; since I cannot do Boolean minimisation (e.g., I cannot rely on not
;;; appearing before a variable, since (not (not a)) is equivalent
;;; to a). On the other hand, going through all Boolean states is
;;; quite resource-consuming and thus not always useful.
;;;
;;; In this section I provide inference of both unsigned and signed
;;; interaction graphs, but since the inference of signed interaction
;;; graphs is based on analysing the dynamics of the networks, it may
;;; be quite resource-consuming.
;;; Lists the variables of the network form appearing in the update
;;; function form for x.

;;; given network, and which contains an arrow from a to b whenever a
