Abstract
Cells are complex systems whose behavior emerges from a huge number of reactions taking place within and among different molecular districts. The availability of bulk and single-cell omics data fueled the creation of multi-omics systems biology models capturing the dynamics within and between omics layers. Powerful modeling strategies are needed to cope with the increased amount of data to be interrogated and the relative research questions. Here, we present MultiOmics Network Embedding for SubType Analysis (MoNETA) for fast and scalable identification of relevant multi-omics relationships between biological entities at the bulk and single-cells level. We apply MoNETA to show how glioma subtypes previously described naturally emerge with our approach. We also show how MoNETA can be used to identify cell types in five multi-omic single-cell datasets.
