Area of Science:

• Bioinformatics
• Molecular Biology
• Computational Biology

Background:

• Non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) are crucial in understanding human diseases, with their subcellular localization being key to their function.
• Traditional methods for ncRNA localization are laborious; computational approaches offer scalable alternatives.
• Existing computational models often overlook the correlations between multiple ncRNA subcellular locations.

Purpose of the Study:

• The RBFNN-SSL model is designed to extract shared structural information across multiple subcellular localizations (multi-labels).
• The model's performance was evaluated using three distinct ncRNA datasets.

Main Results:

• The RBFNN-SSL model demonstrated superior performance compared to existing methods in experimental evaluations.
• The shared subspace learning approach effectively captured relevant correlations among ncRNA localizations.
