Due to its time and cost efficiency, drug repositioning plays an instrumental role in optimizing the drug development process compared to the traditional de novo drug discovery process. Advances in the genomics, together with the enormous growth of large-scale publicly available data and the availability of high-performance computing capabilities, have further motivated the development of computational drug repositioning approaches. More recently, the rise of machine learning techniques, together with the availability of powerful computers, has made the area of computational drug repositioning an area of intense activities.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>In this study, a novel framework SNF-NN based on deep learning is presented, where novel drug-disease interactions are predicted using drug-related similarity information, disease-related similarity information, and known drug-disease interactions. Heterogeneous similarity information related to drugs and disease is fed to the proposed framework in order to predict novel drug-disease interactions. SNF-NN uses similarity selection, similarity network fusion, and a highly tuned novel neural network model to predict new drug-disease interactions. The robustness of SNF-NN is evaluated by comparing its performance with nine baseline machine learning methods. The proposed framework outperforms all baseline methods (<jats:inline-formula><jats:alternatives><jats:tex-math>$$AUC-ROC$$<\/jats:tex-math><mml:math xmlns:mml=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1998\/Math\/MathML\"><mml:mrow><mml:mi>A<\/mml:mi><mml:mi>U<\/mml:mi><mml:mi>C<\/mml:mi><mml:mo>-<\/mml:mo><mml:mi>R<\/mml:mi><mml:mi>O<\/mml:mi><mml:mi>C<\/mml:mi><\/mml:mrow><\/mml:math><\/jats:alternatives><\/jats:inline-formula>= 0.867, and<jats:inline-formula><jats:alternatives><jats:tex-math>$$AUC-PR$$<\/jats:tex-math><mml:math xmlns:mml=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1998\/Math\/MathML\"><mml:mrow><mml:mi>A<\/mml:mi><mml:mi>U<\/mml:mi><mml:mi>C<\/mml:mi><mml:mo>-<\/mml:mo><mml:mi>P<\/mml:mi><mml:mi>R<\/mml:mi><\/mml:mrow><\/mml:math><\/jats:alternatives><\/jats:inline-formula>=0.876) using stratified 10-fold cross-validation.
