Adversarial regularized autoencoder graph neural network for microbe-disease associations prediction

Under the five-fold cross-validation on microbe-disease pairs, SARMDA was compared with eight advanced methods using the Human Microbe-Disease Association Database (HMDAD) and Disbiome databases. The best area under the ROC curve (AUC) achieved by SARMDA on HMDAD was 0.9891$\pm$0.0057, and the best area under the precision-recall curve (AUPR) was 0.9902$\pm$0.0128. On the Disbiome dataset, the AUC was 0.9328$\pm$0.0072, and the best AUPR was 0.9233$\pm$0.0089, outperforming the other eight MDAs prediction methods. Furthermore, the effectiveness of our model was demonstrated through a detailed analysis of asthma and inflammatory bowel disease cases.
