The invention provides a miRNA-
disease association prediction method based on a graph neural network, and relates to the technical field of
graph neural networks. The method comprises the following steps: acquiring miRNA sequence, a
disease description text, miRNA family information, a
disease father-son relationship and miRNA-
disease association relationship data, and constructing a heterograph after performing data alignment; based on the miRNA sequence and the
disease description text, using a pre-training
language model to obtain miRNA representation and disease representation as node features, and updating the heterogeneous graph; and constructing a heterograph MDA association prediction model, and inputting the updated heterograph and the to-be-predicted miRNA-disease pair to obtain an association
prediction score of the to-be-predicted miRNA-disease pair. According to the method, the
biological entity can be fully expressed in entity expression; according to the method, information of different types of nodes can be effectively aggregated on model construction, multi-depth
message passing is executed on different types of edges, integration of
heterogeneous information of the nodes and the edges is achieved, and improvement of miRNA-
disease association prediction performance is facilitated.
