The accurate prediction of potential associations between microRNAs (miRNAs) and small molecule (SM) drugs can enhance our knowledge of how SM cures endogenous miRNA-related diseases. Given that traditional methods for predicting SM-miRNA associations are time-consuming and arduous, a number of computational models have been proposed to anticipate the potential SM–miRNA associations. However, several of these strategies failed to eliminate noise from the known SM-miRNA association information or failed to prioritize the most significant known SM-miRNA associations. Therefore, we proposed a model of Graph Convolutional Network with Layer Attention mechanism for SM-MiRNA Association prediction (GCNLASMMA). Firstly, we obtained the new SM-miRNA associations by matrix decomposition. The new SM-miRNA associations, as well as the integrated SM similarity and miRNA similarity were subsequently incorporated into a heterogeneous network. Finally, a graph convolutional network with an attention mechanism was used to compute the reconstructed SM-miRNA association matrix. Furthermore, four types of cross validations and two types of case studies were performed to assess the performance of GCNLASMMA. In cross validation, global Leave-One-Out Cross Validation (LOOCV), miRNA-fixed LOOCV, SM-fixed LOOCV and 5-fold cross-validation achieved excellent performance. Numerous hypothesized associations in case studies were confirmed by experimental literatures. All of these results confirmed that GCNLASMMA is a trustworthy association inference method. |
