Abstract
Accurate identification of the miRNA-disease associations (MDAs) helps to understand the etiology and mechanisms of various diseases. However, the experimental methods are costly and time-consuming. Thus, it is urgent to develop computational methods towards the prediction of MDAs. Based on the graph theory, the MDA prediction is regarded as a node classification task in the present study. To solve this task, we propose a novel method MDA-GCNFTG, which predicts MDAs based on Graph Convolutional Networks (GCNs) via graph sampling through the Feature and Topology Graph to improve the training efficiency and accuracy. This method models both the potential connections of feature space and the structural relationships of MDA data. The nodes of the graphs are represented by the disease semantic similarity, miRNA functional similarity and Gaussian interaction profile kernel similarity. Moreover, we considered six tasks simultaneously on the MDA prediction problem at the first time, which ensure that under both balanced and unbalanced sample distribution, MDA-GCNFTG can predict not only new MDAs but also new diseases without known related miRNAs and new miRNAs without known related diseases. The results of 5-fold cross-validation show that the MDA-GCNFTG method has achieved satisfactory performance on all six tasks and is significantly superior to the classic machine learning methods and the state-of-the-art MDA prediction methods. Moreover, the effectiveness of GCNs via the graph sampling strategy and the feature and topology graph in MDA-GCNFTG has also been demonstrated. More importantly, case studies for two diseases and three miRNAs are conducted and achieved satisfactory performance.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
