It is essential for a deeper insight into their functions and mechanisms by detecting their subcellular localizations. The traditional methods for determining miRNAs subcellular localizations are expensive. The computational methods are alternative ways to quickly predict miRNAs subcellular localizations. Although several computational methods have been proposed in this regard, the incomplete representations of miRNAs in these methods left the room for improvement. In this study, a novel computational method for predicting miRNA subcellular localizations, named PMiSLocMF, was developed. As lots of miRNAs have multiple subcellular localizations, this method was a multi-label classifier. Several properties of miRNA, such as miRNA sequences, miRNA functional similarity, miRNA-disease, miRNA-drug, and miRNA\u2013mRNA associations were adopted for generating informative miRNA features. To this end, powerful algorithms [node2vec and graph attention auto-encoder (GATE)] and one newly designed scheme were adopted to process above properties, producing five feature types. All features were poured into self-attention and fully connected layers to make predictions. The cross-validation results indicated the high performance of PMiSLocMF with accuracy higher than 0.83, average area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) and area under the precision-recall curve (AUPR) exceeding 0.90 and 0.77, respectively. Such performance was better than all previous methods based on the same dataset. Further tests proved that using all feature types can improve the performance of PMiSLocMF, and GATE and self-attention layer can help enhance the performance. Finally, we deeply analyzed the influence of miRNA associations with diseases, drugs, and mRNAs on PMiSLocMF.
