摘要: 长链非编码RNA(Long non-coding RNA,LncRNA)的异常表达与疾病的生理和病理过程密切相关,识别LncRNA与疾病之间的潜在关联有助于理解疾病的分子发病机制。以往的方法未能深度整合异构的多源数据以及学习高维特征表示。为此,文中提出了一种基于融合神经网络(Fusion Neural Networks,FNN)预测候选疾病相关LncRNA的方法FNNLDA。FNNLDA整合与LncRNA、疾病和miRNAs相关的多种数据,采用多模型融合思想,利用栈式自编码器和融合神经网络两种深度学习模型分别学习LncRNA-疾病对的高级特征,最后融合两个模块的预测分值来预测LncRNA-疾病的关联性。五折交叉验证显示FNNLDA方法的AUC值比SIMCLDA,MFLDA,CNNLDA和LRLSLDA分别提升了12.5%,15.1%,3.4%和5.8%,表明其在LncRNA-疾病预测性能上有较大提升。基于胃癌疾病案例进行研究,结果证明FNNLDA能够有效识别与疾病关联的潜在LncRNA。

Abstract: Aberrant expression of long non-coding RNA(LncRNA) is closely associated with the physiological and pathological processes of diseases.Identifying potential associations between LncRNA and diseases are helpful to understand the molecular pathogenesis of diseases.Previous researches were scarcely integrated with heterogeneous multi-source data and seldom learned high-dimensional feature representations.In this paper,we propose a new method named FNNLDA,which based on fusion neural networks(FNN) to predict the associated LncRNAs of candidate disease.FNNLDA integrates multiple data related to LncRNAs,diseases,and miRNAs.And employs the idea of multi-model fusion to learn high-level features of LncRNA-disease pairs by using two deep learning models:stacked self-encoder and fusion neural network,separately.Finally,fusing the prediction scores of the two modules to predict the LncRNA-disease associations.Five-fold cross-validation test show that the AUC value of FNNLDA method is 12.5%,15.1%,3.4% and 5.8% higher than that of SIMCLDA,MFLDA,CNNLDA and LRLSLDA,respectively.It indicates that this method has a significant improvement in LncRNA-disease prediction.The results of the study based on stomach cancer disease cases demonstrate that FNNLDA can effectively identify potential LncRNAs associated with disease.
