Abstract
Since the identification of microRNAs (miRNAs), empirical research has demonstrated their crucial involvement in the functioning of organisms. Investigating miRNAs significantly bolsters efforts related to averting, diagnosing, and treating intricate human maladies. Yet, exploring every conceivable miRNA–disease association consumes significant resources and time within conventional wet experiments. On the computational front, forecasting potential miRNA–disease connections serves as a valuable source of preliminary insights for medical investigators. As a result, we have developed a novel matrix factorization model known as Hessian-regularized \(L_{2,1}\) nonnegative matrix factorization in combination with deep learning for predicting associations between miRNAs and diseases, denoted as \(HRL_{2,1}\)-NMF-DF. In particular, we introduce a novel iterative fusion approach to integrate all similarities. This method effectively diminishes the sparsity of the initial miRNA–disease associations matrix. Additionally, we devise a mixed model framework that utilizes deep learning, matrix decomposition, and singular value decomposition to capture and depict the intricate nonlinear features of miRNA and disease. The prediction performance of the six matrix factorization methods is improved by comparison and analysis, similarity matrix fusion, data preprocessing, and parameter adjustment. The AUC and AUPR obtained by the new matrix factorization model under fivefold cross validation are comparative or better with other matrix factorization models. Finally, we select three diseases including lung tumor, bladder tumor and breast tumor for case analysis, and further extend the matrix factorization model based on deep learning. The results show that the hybrid algorithm combining matrix factorization with deep learning proposed in this paper can predict miRNAs related to different diseases with high accuracy.
期刊介绍:
Interdisciplinary Sciences--Computational Life Sciences aims to cover the most recent and outstanding developments in interdisciplinary areas of sciences, especially focusing on computational life sciences, an area that is enjoying rapid development at the forefront of scientific research and technology.
The journal publishes original papers of significant general interest covering recent research and developments. Articles will be published rapidly by taking full advantage of internet technology for online submission and peer-reviewing of manuscripts, and then by publishing OnlineFirstTM through SpringerLink even before the issue is built or sent to the printer.
The editorial board consists of many leading scientists with international reputation, among others, Luc Montagnier (UNESCO, France), Dennis Salahub (University of Calgary, Canada), Weitao Yang (Duke University, USA). Prof. Dongqing Wei at the Shanghai Jiatong University is appointed as the editor-in-chief; he made important contributions in bioinformatics and computational physics and is best known for his ground-breaking works on the theory of ferroelectric liquids. With the help from a team of associate editors and the editorial board, an international journal with sound reputation shall be created.
