Multi-view Co-training for microRNA Prediction.

ABSTRACT: MicroRNA (miRNA) are short, non-coding RNAs involved in cell regulation at post-transcriptional and translational levels. Numerous computational predictors of miRNA been developed that generally classify miRNA based on either sequence- or expression-based features. While these methods are highly effective, they require large labelled training data sets, which are often not available for many species. Simultaneously, emerging high-throughput wet-lab experimental procedures are producing large unlabelled data sets of genomic sequence and RNA expression profiles. Existing methods use supervised machine learning and are therefore unable to leverage these unlabelled data. In this paper, we design and develop a multi-view co-training approach for the classification of miRNA to maximize the utili
