miRAW: A deep learning-based approach to predict microRNA targets by analyzing whole microRNA transcripts.

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding RNAs that regulate gene expression by binding to partially complementary regions within the 3'UTR of their target genes. Computational methods play an important role in target prediction and assume that the miRNA "seed region" (nt 2 to 8) is req...
