A learning based framework for diverse biomolecule relationship prediction in molecular association network

Abstract

Abundant life activities are maintained by various biomolecule relationships in human cells. However, many previous computational models only focus on isolated objects, without considering that cell is a complete entity with ample functions. Inspired by holism, we constructed a Molecular Associations Network (MAN) including 9 kinds of relationships among 5 types of biomolecules, and a prediction model called MAN-GF. More specifically, biomolecules can be represented as vectors by the algorithm called biomarker2vec which combines 2 kinds of information involved the attribute learned by k-mer, etc and the behavior learned by Graph Factorization (GF). Then, Random Forest classifier is applied for training, validation and test. MAN-GF obtained a substantial performance with AUC of 0.9647 and AUPR of 0.9521 under 5-fold Cross-validation. The results imply that MAN-GF with an overall perspective can act as ancillary for practice. Besides, it holds great hope to provide a new insight to elucidate the regulatory mechanisms.
