Abstract EN
MicroRNAs constitute an important class of noncoding, single-stranded, ~22 nucleotide long RNA molecules encoded by endogenous genes.
They play an important role in regulating gene transcription and the regulation of normal development.
MicroRNAs can be associated with disease; however, only a few microRNA-disease associations have been confirmed by traditional experimental approaches.
We introduce two methods to predict microRNA-disease association.
The first method, KATZ, focuses on integrating the social network analysis method with machine learning and is based on networks derived from known microRNA-disease associations, disease-disease associations, and microRNA-microRNA associations.
The other method, CATAPULT, is a supervised machine learning method.
We applied the two methods to 242 known microRNA-disease associations and evaluated their performance using leave-one-out cross-validation and 3-fold cross-validation.
Experiments proved that our methods outperformed the state-of-the-art methods.
