GIAE-DTI: Predicting Drug-Target Interactions Based on Heterogeneous Network and GIN-Based Graph Autoencoder
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Accurate prediction of drug-target interactions (DTIs) is essential for advancing drug discovery and repurposing. However, the sparsity of DTI data limits the effectiveness of existing computational methods, which primarily focus on sparse DTI networks and have poor performance in aggregating information from neighboring nodes and representing isolated nodes within the network. In this study, we propose a novel deep learning framework, named GIAE-DTI, which considers cross-modal similarity of drugs and targets and constructs a heterogeneous network for DTI prediction. Firstly, the model calculates the cross-modal similarity of drugs and proteins from the relationships among drugs, proteins, diseases, and side effects, and performs similarity integration by taking the average. Then, a drug-target heterogeneous network is constructed, including drug-drug interactions, protein-protein interactions, and drug-target interactions processed by weighted K nearest known neighbors. In the heterogeneous network, a graph autoencoder based on a graph isomorphism network is employed for feature extraction, while a dual decoder is utilized to achieve better self-supervised learning, resulting in latent feature representations for drugs and targets. Finally, a deep neural network is employed to predict DTIs. The experimental results indicate that on the benchmark dataset, GIAE-DTI achieves AUC and AUPR scores of 0.9533 and 0.9619, respectively, in DTI prediction, outperforming the current state-of-the-art methods. Additionally, case studies on four 5-hydroxytryptamine receptor-related targets and five drugs related to mental diseases show the great potential of the proposed method in practical applications.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

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 itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
