Global Similarity Method Based on a Two-tier Random Walk for the Prediction of microRNA–Disease Association

Abstract microRNAs (miRNAs) mutation and maladjustment are related to the occurrence and development of human diseases. Studies on disease-associated miRNA have contributed to disease diagnosis and treatment. To address the problems, such as low prediction accuracy and failure to predict the relatio...
