There is much evidence that long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) is associated with many diseases. However, it is time-consuming and expensive to identify meaningful lncRNA-disease associations (LDAs) through medical or biological experiments. Therefore, inv...

Identification of disease-associated miRNAs (disease miRNAs) are critical for understanding etiology and pathogenesis. Most previous methods focus on integrating similarities and associating information contained in heterogeneous miRNA-disease networ...
In order to gain insight into oligogenic disorders, understanding those involving bi-locus variant combinations appears to be key. In prior work, we showed that features at multiple biological scales can already be used to discriminate among two type...
Crohn Disease (CD) is a complex genetic disorder for which more than 140 genes have been identified using genome wide association studies (GWAS). However, the genetic architecture of the trait remains largely unknown. The recent development of machin...
BACKGROUND: Comprehensive breast cancer risk prediction models enable identifying and targeting women at high-risk, while reducing interventions in those at low-risk. Breast cancer risk prediction models used in clinical practice have low discriminat...
BACKGROUND: Diabetes mellitus is a chronic disease that impacts an increasing percentage of people each year. Among its comorbidities, diabetics are two to four times more likely to develop cardiovascular diseases. While HbA1c remains the primary dia...
We address the challenge of detecting the contribution of noncoding mutations to disease with a deep-learning-based framework that predicts the specific regulatory effects and the deleterious impact of genetic variants. Applying this framework to 1,7...
The study of Mendelian diseases and the identification of their causative genes are of great significance in the field of genetics. The evaluation of the pathogenicity of genes and the total number of Mendelian disease genes are both important questi...
Approximately 300 million people are afflicted with asthma around the world, with the estimated death rate of 250,000 cases, indicating the significance of this disease. If not treated, it can turn into a serious public health problem. The best metho...
With the rapid development of high-throughput sequencing technology, a large number of transcript sequences have been discovered, and how to identify long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) from transcripts is a challenging task. The identification and inclus...
