Abstract

MOTIVATION: In recent years, a growing number of studies have proved that microRNAs (miRNAs) play significant roles in the development of human complex diseases. Discovering the associations between miRNAs and diseases has become an important part of the discovery and treatment of disease. Since uncovering associations via traditional experimental methods is complicated and time-consuming, many computational methods have been proposed to identify the potential associations. However, there are still challenges in accurately determining potential associations between miRNA and disease by using multisource data.
