Excited to share our new research! We've developed miRBench, a tool & framework addressing bias in microRNA target prediction datasets. Our work shows this bias inflates model performance & we've created unbiased datasets + a Python package to fix it.

miRBench: novel benchmark datasets for microRNA binding site prediction that mitigate against prevalent microRNA Frequency Class Bias
Motivation: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are crucial regulators of gene expression, but the precise mechanisms governing their binding to target sites remain unclear. A major contributing factor to this is the ...
