Embodiment 1

[0036] Such as Figure 1-4 Shown, a kind of miRNA target gene prediction method based on convolutional neural network, comprises the following steps:

[0037] S1: According to the published miRNA-mRNA pair, download the corresponding sample data mRNA required for the experiment from the NCBI library, download the corresponding sample data miRNA required for the experiment from the miRBase library, and calculate the eigenvalues ​​of the original and negative samples, where , the characteristics are divided into three categories: complementarity, accessibility, and conservation; and complementarity can be evaluated from 9 characteristics, 9 characteristic values; accessibility can be evaluated from 8 characteristics, 8 Eigenvalues; Conservatism is evaluated from 3 eigenvalues, 3 eigenvalues; therefore a total of 20 eigenvalues ​​need to be calculated;

[0038] S2: Construct a balanced data set: In order to obtain more candidate sites, set loose thresholds for the three characte...

Abstract

The invention provides a new algorithm (CNNmiRT) to predict miRNA target genes by utilizing the features of complementation, conservation and accessibility between miRNA-target genes. Because experiment support on negative interaction is not published commonly, and is not recorded in a database, therefore the number of loci of verified negative samples is far lower than that of loci of positive samples. A restraint release method is used to build four kinds of balanced experimentally-verified training data sets in order to compensate, and the four kinds of balanced experimentally-verified training data sets comprise one highly-conservative positive sample data set, one completely-complementary positive sample data set, one accessible positive sample data set and one negative sample data set. The method not only avoids wrong filtering of real targets which do not meet certain feature thresholds, but also solves the problem of disequilibrium of the experimentally-verified data sets. Then, the miRNA target genes are predicted by applying the convolutional neural network.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the field of bioinformatics, more specifically, to a method for predicting miRNA target genes based on convolutional neural networks. Background technique [0002] With the rapid development of bioinformatics, genomics has become a way for people to study the causes of diseases from the perspective of the origin of genes, and the core principle of the research is the central dogma. The central dogma refers to the process in which genetic information is transferred from DNA to RNA through transcription, and then translated into protein by RNA. Genetic information flows from DNA to RNA and then to protein, so it is generally said that this is the process of DNA expression, but as Lee et al in 1993 (Lee R C, Feinbaum R L, Ambros V. The C. elegans heterochronic gene lin- 4 encodes small RNAs with antisense complementarity to lin-14[J].Cell, 1993, 75(5): 843-854.) The discovery of miRNA has changed people’s understanding of...
