Abstract

MOTIVATION: Leveraging deep learning for the representation learning of Gene Ontology (GO) and Gene Ontology Annotation (GOA) holds significant promise for enhancing downstream biological tasks such as protein-protein interaction prediction. Prior approaches have predominantly used text- and graph-based methods, embedding GO and GOA in a single geometric space (e.g. Euclidean or hyperbolic). However, since the GO graph exhibits a complex and nonmonotonic hierarchy, single-space embeddings are insufficient to fully capture its structural nuances.
