Abstract
Spreading quickly throughout populations, whether animal or human-borne, infectious illnesses provide serious risks and difficulties. Controlling their spread and averting disinformation requires effective risk assessment and epidemic identification. Technology-enabled data analysis on diseases allows for quick solutions to these problems. A Combinational Data Assessment Scheme intended to accelerate disease detection is presented in this paper. The suggested strategy avoids duplicate data replication by sharing data among edge devices. It uses indexed data gathering to improve early detection by using tree classifiers to discern between various kinds of information. Both data similarity and index measurements are considered throughout the data analysis stage to minimize assessment errors. Accurate risk detection and assessment based on information kind and sharing frequency are ensured by comparing non-linear accumulations with accurate shared edge data. The suggested system exhibits high accuracy, low mistakes, and decreased data repetition to improve overall effectiveness in illness detection and risk reduction.

Abstract
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are an important class of non-coding RNAs that play an essential role in the occurrence and development of various diseases. Identifying the potential miRNA-disease associations (MDAs) can be beneficial in understanding disease pathogenesis. Traditional laboratory experiments are expensive and time-consuming. Computational models have enabled systematic large-scale prediction of potential MDAs, greatly improving the research efficiency. With recent advances in deep learning, it has become an attractive and powerful technique for uncovering novel MDAs. Consequently, numerous MDA prediction methods based on deep learning have emerged. In this review, we first summarize publicly available databases related to miRNAs and diseases for MDA prediction. Next, we outline commonly used miRNA and disease similarity calculation and integration methods. Then, we comprehensively review the 48 existing deep learning-based MDA computation methods, categorizing them into classical deep learning and graph neural network-based techniques. Subsequently, we investigate the evaluation methods and metrics that are frequently used to assess MDA prediction performance. Finally, we discuss the performance trends of different computational methods, point out some problems in current research, and propose 9 potential future research directions. Data resources and recent advances in MDA prediction methods are summarized in the GitHub repository https://github.com/sheng-n/DL-miRNA-disease-association-methods.

Abstract
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are human post-transcriptional regulators in humans, which are involved in regulating various physiological processes by regulating the gene expression. The subcellular localization of miRNAs plays a crucial role in the discovery of their biological functions. Although several computational methods based on miRNA functional similarity networks have been presented to identify the subcellular localization of miRNAs, it remains difficult for these approaches to effectively extract well-referenced miRNA functional representations due to insufficient miRNA-disease association representation and disease semantic representation. Currently, there has been a significant amount of research on miRNA-disease associations, making it possible to address the issue of insufficient miRNA functional representation. In this work, a novel model is established, named DAmiRLocGNet, based on graph convolutional network (GCN) and autoencoder (AE) for identifying the subcellular localizations of miRNA. The DAmiRLocGNet constructs the features based on miRNA sequence information, miRNA-disease association information and disease semantic information. GCN is utilized to gather the information of neighboring nodes and capture the implicit information of network structures from miRNA-disease association information and disease semantic information. AE is employed to capture sequence semantics from sequence similarity networks. The evaluation demonstrates that the performance of DAmiRLocGNet is superior to other competing computational approaches, benefiting from implicit features captured by using GCNs. The DAmiRLocGNet has the potential to be applied to the identification of subcellular localization of other non-coding RNAs. Moreover, it can facilitate further investigation into the functional mechanisms underlying miRNA localization. The source code and datasets are accessed at http://bliulab.net/DAmiRLocGNet.

Abstract
Predicting the associations of miRNAs and diseases may uncover the causation of various diseases. Many methods are emerging to tackle the sparse and unbalanced disease related miRNA prediction. Here, we propose a Probabilistic matrix decomposition combined with neighbor learning to identify MiRNA-Disease Associations utilizing heterogeneous data(PMDA). First, we build similarity networks for diseases and miRNAs, respectively, by integrating semantic information and functional interactions. Second, we construct a neighbor learning model in which the neighbor information of individual miRNA or disease is utilized to enhance the association relationship to tackle the spare problem. Third, we predict the potential association between miRNAs and diseases via probability matrix decomposition. The experimental results show that PMDA is superior to other five methods in sparse and unbalanced data. The case study shows that the new miRNA-disease interactions predicted by the PMDA are effective and the performance of the PMDA is superior to other methods.

Abstract
Growing evidence from recent studies implies that microRNAs or miRNAs could serve as biomarkers in various complex human diseases. Since wet-lab experiments for detecting miRNAs associated with a disease are expensive and time-consuming, machine learning techniques for miRNA-disease association prediction have attracted much attention in recent years. A big challenge in building reliable machine learning models is that of data scarcity. In particular, existing approaches trained on the available small datasets, even when combined with precalculated handcrafted input features, often suffer from bad generalization and data leakage problems. We overcome the limitations of existing works by proposing a novel multitask graph convolution-based approach, which we refer to as MuCoMiD. MuCoMiD allows automatic feature extraction while incorporating knowledge from five heterogeneous biological information sources (associations between miRNAs/diseases and protein-coding genes (PCGs), interactions between protein-coding genes, miRNA family information, and disease ontology) in a multitask setting which is a novel perspective and has not been studied before. To effectively test the generalization capability of our model, we conduct large-scale experiments on the standard benchmark datasets as well as on our proposed large independent testing sets and case studies. MuCoMiD obtains significantly higher Average Precision (AP) scores than all benchmarked models on three large independent testing sets, especially those with many new miRNAs, as well as in the detection of false positives. Thanks to its capability of learning directly from raw input information, MuCoMiD is easier to maintain and update than handcrafted feature-based methods, which would require recomputation of features every time there is a change in the original information sources (e.g., disease ontology, miRNA/disease-PCG associations, etc.). We share our code for reproducibility and future research at https://git.l3s.uni-hannover.de/dong/cmtt.

A message passing framework with multiple data integration for miRNA-disease association prediction. Sci Rep 2022; 12:16259.

Abstract
Micro RNA or miRNA is a highly conserved class of non-coding RNA that plays an important role in many diseases. Identifying miRNA-disease associations can pave the way for better clinical diagnosis and finding potential drug targets. We propose a biologically-motivated data-driven approach for the miRNA-disease association prediction, which overcomes the data scarcity problem by exploiting information from multiple data sources. The key idea is to enrich the existing miRNA/disease-protein-coding gene (PCG) associations via a message passing framework, followed by the use of disease ontology information for further feature filtering. The enriched and filtered PCG associations are then used to construct the inter-connected miRNA-PCG-disease network to train a structural deep network embedding (SDNE) model. Finally, the pre-trained embeddings and the biologically relevant features from the miRNA family and disease semantic similarity are concatenated to form the pair input representations to a Random Forest classifier whose task is to predict the miRNA-disease association probabilities. We present large-scale comparative experiments, ablation, and case studies to showcase our approach's superiority. Besides, we make the model prediction results for 1618 miRNAs and 3679 diseases, along with all related information, publicly available at http://software.mpm.leibniz-ai-lab.de/ to foster assessments and future adoption.

Abstract
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are significant regulators in various biological processes. They may become promising biomarkers or therapeutic targets, which provide a new perspective in diagnosis and treatment of multiple diseases. Since the experimental methods are always costly and resource-consuming, prediction of disease-related miRNAs using computational methods is in great need. In this study, we developed MDA-CF to identify underlying miRNA-disease associations based on a cascade forest model. In this method, multi-source information was integrated to represent miRNAs and diseases comprehensively, and the autoencoder was utilized for dimension reduction to obtain the optimal feature space. The cascade forest model was then employed for miRNA-disease association prediction. As a result, the average AUC of MDA-CF was 0.9464 on HMDD v3.2 in five-fold cross-validation. Compared with previous computational methods, MDA-CF performed better on HMDD v2.0 with an average AUC of 0.9258. Moreover, MDA-CF was implemented to investigate colon neoplasm, breast neoplasm, and gastric neoplasm, and 100%, 86%, 88% of the top 50 potential miRNAs were validated by authoritative databases. In conclusion, MDA-CF appears to be a reliable method to uncover disease-associated miRNAs. The source code of MDA-CF is available at https://github.com/a1622108/MDA-CF.

MDA-GCNFTG: identifying miRNA-disease associations based on graph convolutional networks via graph sampling through the feature and topology graph. Brief Bioinform 2021; 22:6261915.

Abstract
Accurate identification of the miRNA-disease associations (MDAs) helps to understand the etiology and mechanisms of various diseases. However, the experimental methods are costly and time-consuming. Thus, it is urgent to develop computational methods towards the prediction of MDAs. Based on the graph theory, the MDA prediction is regarded as a node classification task in the present study. To solve this task, we propose a novel method MDA-GCNFTG, which predicts MDAs based on Graph Convolutional Networks (GCNs) via graph sampling through the Feature and Topology Graph to improve the training efficiency and accuracy. This method models both the potential connections of feature space and the structural relationships of MDA data. The nodes of the graphs are represented by the disease semantic similarity, miRNA functional similarity and Gaussian interaction profile kernel similarity. Moreover, we considered six tasks simultaneously on the MDA prediction problem at the first time, which ensure that under both balanced and unbalanced sample distribution, MDA-GCNFTG can predict not only new MDAs but also new diseases without known related miRNAs and new miRNAs without known related diseases. The results of 5-fold cross-validation show that the MDA-GCNFTG method has achieved satisfactory performance on all six tasks and is significantly superior to the classic machine learning methods and the state-of-the-art MDA prediction methods. Moreover, the effectiveness of GCNs via the graph sampling strategy and the feature and topology graph in MDA-GCNFTG has also been demonstrated. More importantly, case studies for two diseases and three miRNAs are conducted and achieved satisfactory performance.
