The detection of miRNA regulatory modules (MRMs) can facilitate the analysis of miRNA combination effects in aberrant transcriptional regulatory networks. Existing methods suffer from stochastic or require a predetermined number of regulatory modules. We here develop a parameter-free computational framework named DeMine to predict MRMs. Briefly, DeMine is an information entropy-based method implemented by three steps. It first transforms miRNA regulatory network into a miRNA-miRNA synergistic network, and then detects miRNA clusters by maximizi...
