Abstract
MOTIVATION: There is growing evidence showing that the dysregulations of miRNAs cause diseases through various kinds of the underlying mechanism. Thus, predicting the multiple-category associations between microRNAs (miRNAs) and diseases plays an important role in investigating the roles of miRNAs in diseases. Moreover, in contrast with traditional biological experiments which are time-consuming and expensive, computational approaches for the prediction of multicategory miRNA-disease associations are time-saving and cost-effective that are highly desired for us.
