Drug repositioning based on comprehensive similarity
measures and Bi-Random Walk algorithm
MBiRW is one novel
computational method, which utilizes comprehensive similarity measures and
Bi-Random walk algorithm to identify potential novel indications for a given
drug.
DataSet
The dataset including drug
similarity, disease similarity and known drug-disease association, is download
obtained from the supplementary material of paper Gottlieb et al., 2011[Gottlieb,
A. et al. (2011) PREDICT: a method for inferring novel drug indications with
application to personalized medicine. Molecular systems biology, 7(1), 496.],
which collected comprehensive associations between drugs and diseases from
multiple data sources. [Drug-disease.rar]
