Abstract Background Wet-lab experiments for identification of interactions between drugs and target proteins are time-consuming, costly and labor-intensive. The use of computational prediction of drug–target interactions (DTIs), which is one of the significant points in drug discovery, has been considered by many researchers in recent years. It also reduces the search space of interactions by proposing potential interaction candidates. Results In this paper, a new approach based on unifying matrix factorization and nuclear norm minimization is proposed to find a low-rank interaction. In this combined method, to solve the low-rank matrix approximation, the terms in the DTI problem are used in such a way that the nuclear norm regularized problem is optimized by a bilinear factorization based on Rank-Restricted Soft Singular Value Decomposition (RRSSVD). In the proposed method, adjacencies between drugs and targets are encoded by graphs. Drug–target interaction, drug-drug similarity, target-target, and combination of similarities have also been used as input. Conclusions The proposed method is evaluated on four benchmark datasets known as Enzymes (E), Ion channels (ICs), G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) and nuclear receptors (NRs) based on AUC, AUPR, and time measure. The results show an improvement in the performance of the proposed method compared to the state-of-the-art techniques.

AbstractDrug discovery is an important field in the pharmaceutical industry with one of its crucial chemogenomic process being drug-target interaction prediction. This interaction determination is expensive and laborious, which brings the need for alternative computational approaches which could help reduce the search space for biological experiments. This paper proposes a novel framework for drug-target interaction (DTI) prediction: Multi-Graph Regularized Deep Matrix Factorization (MGRDMF). The proposed method, motivated by the success of deep learning, finds a low-rank solution which is structured by the proximities of drugs and targets (drug similarities and target similarities) using deep matrix factorization. Deep matrix factorization is capable of learning deep representations of drugs and targets for interaction prediction. It is an established fact that drug and target similarities incorporation preserves the local geometries of the data in original space and learns the data manifold better. However, there is no literature on which the type of similarity matrix (apart from the standard biological chemical structure similarity for drugs and genomic sequence similarity for targets) could best help in DTI prediction. Therefore, we attempt to take into account various types of similarities between drugs/targets as multiple graph Laplacian regularization terms which take into account the neighborhood information between drugs/targets. This is the first work which has leveraged multiple similarity/neighborhood information into the deep learning framework for drug-target interaction prediction. The cross-validation results on four benchmark data sets validate the efficacy of the proposed algorithm by outperforming shallow state-of-the-art computational methods on the grounds of AUPR and AUC.

AbstractThe identification of interactions between drugs and target proteins is crucial in pharmaceutical sciences. The experimental validation of interactions in genomic drug discovery is laborious and expensive; hence, there is a need for efficient and accurate in-silico techniques which can predict potential drug-target interactions to narrow down the search space for experimental verification.In this work, we propose a new framework, namely, Multi Graph Regularized Nuclear Norm Minimization, which predicts the interactions between drugs and proteins from three inputs: known drug-target interaction network, similarities over drugs and those over targets. The proposed method focuses on finding a low-rank interaction matrix that is structured by the proximities of drugs and targets encoded by graphs. Previous works on Drug Target Interaction (DTI) prediction have shown that incorporating drug and target similarities helps in learning the data manifold better by preserving the local geometries of the original data. But, there is no clear consensus on which kind and what combination of similarities would best assist the prediction task. Hence, we propose to use various multiple drug-drug similarities and target-target similarities as multiple graph Laplacian (over drugs/targets) regularization terms to capture the proximities exhaustively.Extensive cross-validation experiments on four benchmark datasets using standard evaluation metrics (AUPR and AUC) show that the proposed algorithm improves the predictive performance and outperforms recent state-of-the-art computational methods by a large margin.Author summaryThis work introduces a computational approach, namely Multi-Graph Regularized Nuclear Norm Minimization (MGRNNM), to predict potential interactions between drugs and targets. The novelty of MGRNNM lies in structuring drug-target interactions by multiple proximities of drugs and targets. There have been previous works which have graph regularized Matrix factorization and Matrix completion algorithms to incorporate the standard chemical structure drug similarity and genomic sequence target protein similarity, respectively. We introduce multiple drug-graph laplacian and target-graph laplacian regularization terms to the standard matrix completion framework to predict the missing values in the interaction matrix. The graph Laplacian terms are constructed from various kinds and combinations of similarities over drugs and targets (computed from the interaction matrix itself). In addition to this, we further improve the prediction accuracy by sparsifying the drug and target similarity matrices, respectively. For performance evaluation, we conducted extensive experiments on four benchmark datasets. The experimental results demonstrated that MGRNNM clearly outperforms recent state-of-the-art methods under three different cross-validation settings, in terms of the area under the ROC curve (AUC) and the area under the precision-recall curve (AUPR).

Abstract Computational prediction of drug–target interactions (DTIs) has become an essential task in the drug discovery process. It narrows down the search space for interactions by suggesting potential interaction candidates for validation via wet-lab experiments that are well known to be expensive and time-consuming. In this article, we aim to provide a comprehensive overview and empirical evaluation on the computational DTI prediction techniques, to act as a guide and reference for our fellow researchers. Specifically, we first describe the data used in such computational DTI prediction efforts. We then categorize and elaborate the state-of-the-art methods for predicting DTIs. Next, an empirical comparison is performed to demonstrate the prediction performance of some representative methods under different scenarios. We also present interesting findings from our evaluation study, discussing the advantages and disadvantages of each method. Finally, we highlight potential avenues for further enhancement of DTI prediction performance as well as related research directions.

Abstract Summary Accurate prediction of drug–target interactions (DTI) is crucial for drug discovery. Recently, deep learning (DL) models for show promising performance for DTI prediction. However, these models can be difficult to use for both computer scientists entering the biomedical field and bioinformaticians with limited DL experience. We present DeepPurpose, a comprehensive and easy-to-use DL library for DTI prediction. DeepPurpose supports training of customized DTI prediction models by implementing 15 compound and protein encoders and over 50 neural architectures, along with providing many other useful features. We demonstrate state-of-the-art performance of DeepPurpose on several benchmark datasets. Availability and implementation https://github.com/kexinhuang12345/DeepPurpose.

In the medical field, drug-target interactions are very important for the diagnosis and treatment of diseases, they also can help researchers predict the link between biomolecules in the biological field, such as drug-protein and protein-target correlations. Therefore, the drug-target research is a very popular study in both the biological and medical fields. However, due to the limitations of manual experiments in the laboratory, computational prediction methods for drug-target relationships are increasingly favored by researchers. In this review, we summarize several computational prediction models of the drug-target connections during the past two years, and briefly introduce their advantages and shortcomings. Finally, several further interesting research directions of drug-target interactions are listed.

Low-rank matrix recovery (LMR) is a rank minimization problem subject to linear equality constraints, and it arises in many fields such as signal and image processing, statistics, computer vision, and system identification and control. This class of optimization problems is generally𝒩𝒫hard. A popular approach replaces the rank function with the nuclear norm of the matrix variable. In this paper, we extend and characterize the concept ofs-goodness for a sensing matrix in sparse signal recovery (proposed by Juditsky and Nemirovski (Math Program, 2011)) to linear transformations in LMR. Using the two characteristics-goodness constants,γsandγ^s, of a linear transformation, we derive necessary and sufficient conditions for a linear transformation to bes-good. Moreover, we establish the equivalence ofs-goodness and the null space properties. Therefore,s-goodness is a necessary and sufficient condition for exacts-rank matrix recovery via the nuclear norm minimization.

Abstract This paper considers the problem of estimating a low-rank matrix from the observation of all or a subset of its entries in the presence of Poisson noise. When we observe all entries, this is a problem of matrix denoising; when we observe only a subset of the entries, this is a problem of matrix completion. In both cases, we exploit an assumption that the underlying matrix is low-rank. Specifically, we analyse several estimators, including a constrained nuclear-norm minimization program, nuclear-norm regularized least squares and a non-convex constrained low-rank optimization problem. We show that for all three estimators, with high probability, we have an upper error bound (in the Frobenius norm error metric) that depends on the matrix rank, the fraction of the elements observed and the maximal row and column sums of the true matrix. We furthermore show that the above results are minimax optimal (within a universal constant) in classes of matrices with low-rank and bounded row and column sums. We also extend these results to handle the case of matrix multinomial denoising and completion.

In-silico prediction of repurposable drugs is an effective drug discovery strategy that supplements de-nevo drug discovery from scratch. Reduced development time, less cost and absence of severe side effects are significant advantages of using drug repositioning. Most recent and most advanced artificial intelligence (AI) approaches have boosted drug repurposing in terms of throughput and accuracy enormously. However, with the growing number of drugs, targets and their massive interactions produce imbalanced data which may not be suitable as input to the classification model directly. Here, we have proposed DTI-SNNFRA, a framework for predicting drug-target interaction (DTI), based on shared nearest neighbour (SNN) and fuzzy-rough approximation (FRA). It uses sampling techniques to collectively reduce the vast search space covering the available drugs, targets and millions of interactions between them. DTI-SNNFRA operates in two stages: first, it uses SNN followed by a partitioning clustering for sampling the search space. Next, it computes the degree of fuzzy-rough approximations and proper degree threshold selection for the negative samples’ undersampling from all possible interaction pairs between drugs and targets obtained in the first stage. Finally, classification is performed using the positive and selected negative samples. We have evaluated the efficacy of DTI-SNNFRA using AUC (Area under ROC Curve), Geometric Mean, and F1 Score. The model performs exceptionally well with a high prediction score of 0.95 for ROC-AUC. The predicted drug-target interactions are validated through an existing drug-target database (Connectivity Map (Cmap)).
