NRLMF?: Beta-distribution-rescored neighborhood regularized logistic matrix factorization for improving the performance of drug-target interaction prediction.

ABSTRACT: Techniques for predicting interactions between a drug and a target (protein) are useful for strategic drug repositioning. Neighborhood regularized logistic matrix factorization (NRLMF) is one of the state-of-the-art drug-target interaction prediction methods; it is based on a statistical model using the Bernoulli distribution. However, the prediction is not accurate when drug-target interaction pairs have less interaction information (e.g., the sum of the number of ligands for a target and the number of target proteins for a drug). This study aimed to address this issue by proposing NRLMF with beta distribution rescoring (NRLMF?), which is an algorithm to improve the score of NRLMF. The score of NRLMF? is equivalent to the value of the original NRLMF score when the concentration of the beta distribution becomes infinity. The beta distribution is known as a conjugative prior distribution of the Bernoulli distribution and can reflect the amount of interaction information to its shape based on Bayesian inference. Therefore, in NRLMF?, the beta distribution was used for rescoring the NRLMF score. In the evaluation experiment, we measured the average values of area under the receiver operating characteristics and area under precision versus recall and the 95% confidence intervals. The performance of NRLMF? was found to be better than that of NRLMF in the four types of benchmark datasets. Thus, we concluded that NRLMF? improved the prediction accuracy of NRLMF.

Project description:With the rapid development of biological research, microRNAs (miRNA) have become an attractive topic because lots of experimental studies have revealed the significant associations between miRNAs and diseases. However, considering that experiments are expensive and time-consuming, computational methods for predicting associations between miRNAs and diseases have become increasingly crucial. In this study, we proposed a neighborhood regularized logistic matrix factorization method for miRNA-disease association prediction (NRLMFMDA) by integrating miRNA functional similarity, disease semantic similarity, Gaussian interaction profile kernel similarity, and experimentally validation of disease-miRNA association. We used Gaussian interaction profile kernel similarity to cover the shortage of the traditional similarity to make it more reasonable and complete. Furthermore, NRLMFMDA also considered the important influences of the neighborhood information and took full advantage of them to improve the accuracy of the miRNA-disease association prediction. We also improved the accuracy by giving higher weights to the known association data in the process of calculating the potential association probabilities. In the global and the local leave-one-out cross validation, NRLMFMDA got the AUCs of 0.9068 and 0.8239, respectively. Moreover, the average AUC of NRLMFMDA in 5-fold cross validation was 0.8976 ± 0.0034. All the three kinds of cross validations have shown significant advantages to a number of previous models. In the case studies of breast neoplasms, esophageal neoplasms and lymphoma according to known miRNA-disease associations in the recent version of HMDD database, there were 78, 80, and 74% of top 50 predicted related miRNAs verified to have associations with these three diseases, respectively. In the further case studies for new disease without any known related miRNAs and the previous version of HMDD database, there were also high proportions of the predicted miRNAs verified by experimental reports. All the validation experiment results have demonstrated the effectiveness and practicability of NRLFMDA to predict the potential miRNA-disease associations.
