ABSTRACT
Potential miRNA-disease associations (MDA) play an important role in the discovery of complex human disease etiology. Therefore, MDA prediction is an attractive research topic in the field of biomedical machine learning. Recently, several models have been proposed for this task, but their performance limited by over-reliance on relevant network information with noisy graph structure connections. However, the application of self-supervised graph structure learning to MDA tasks remains unexplored. Our study is the first to use multi-view self-supervised contrastive learning (MSGCL) for MDA prediction. Specifically, we generated a learner view without association labels of miRNAs and diseases as input, and utilized the known association network to generate an anchor view that provides guiding signals for the learner view. The graph structure was optimized by designing a contrastive loss to maximize the consistency between the anchor and learner views. Our model is similar to a pre-trained model that continuously optimizes upstream tasks for high-quality association graph topology, thereby enhancing the latent representation of association predictions. The experimental results show that our proposed method outperforms state-of-the-art methods by 2.79$\%$ and 3.20$\%$ in area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) and area under the precision/recall curve (AUPR), respectively.
