A network-based classification model for deriving novel drug-disease associations and assessing their molecular actions.

The growing number and variety of genetic network datasets increases the feasibility of understanding how drugs and diseases are associated at the molecular level. Properly selected features of the network representations of existing drug-disease associations can be used to infer novel indications o...
