Comparing classification models-a practical tutorial.

Journal of computer-aided molecular design
While machine learning models have become a mainstay in Cheminformatics, the field has yet to agree on standards for model evaluation and comparison. In many cases, authors compare methods by performing multiple folds of cross-validation and reportin...

Multitask machine learning models for predicting lipophilicity (logP) in the SAMPL7 challenge.

Journal of computer-aided molecular design
Accurate prediction of lipophilicity-logP-based on molecular structures is a well-established field. Predictions of logP are often used to drive forward drug discovery projects. Driven by the SAMPL7 challenge, in this manuscript we describe the steps...

Binding affinity prediction for binary drug-target interactions using semi-supervised transfer learning.

Journal of computer-aided molecular design
In the field of drug-target interactions prediction, the majority of approaches formulated the problem as a simple binary classification task. These methods used binary drug-target interaction datasets to train their models. The prediction of drug-ta...

Fine-tuning of a generative neural network for designing multi-target compounds.

Journal of computer-aided molecular design
Exploring the origin of multi-target activity of small molecules and designing new multi-target compounds are highly topical issues in pharmaceutical research. We have investigated the ability of a generative neural network to create multi-target com...

Prediction of activity cliffs on the basis of images using convolutional neural networks.

Journal of computer-aided molecular design
An activity cliff (AC) is formed by a pair of structurally similar compounds with a large difference in potency. Accordingly, ACs reveal structure-activity relationship (SAR) discontinuity and provide SAR information for compound optimization. Herein...

Machine learning-accelerated quantum mechanics-based atomistic simulations for industrial applications.

Journal of computer-aided molecular design
Atomistic simulations have become an invaluable tool for industrial applications ranging from the optimization of protein-ligand interactions for drug discovery to the design of new materials for energy applications. Here we review recent advances in...

ProIn-Fuse: improved and robust prediction of proinflammatory peptides by fusing of multiple feature representations.

Journal of computer-aided molecular design
A proinflammatory peptide (PIP) is a type of signaling molecules that are secreted from immune cells, which contributes to the first line of defense against invading pathogens. Numerous experiments have shown that PIPs play an important role in human...

Meta-iPVP: a sequence-based meta-predictor for improving the prediction of phage virion proteins using effective feature representation.

Journal of computer-aided molecular design
Phage virion protein (PVP) perforate the host cell membrane and eventually culminates in cell rupture thereby releasing replicated phages. The accurate identification of PVP is thus a crucial step towards improving our understanding of the biological...

Interpretation of machine learning models using shapley values: application to compound potency and multi-target activity predictions.

Journal of computer-aided molecular design
Difficulties in interpreting machine learning (ML) models and their predictions limit the practical applicability of and confidence in ML in pharmaceutical research. There is a need for agnostic approaches aiding in the interpretation of ML models re...

Revealing cytotoxic substructures in molecules using deep learning.

Journal of computer-aided molecular design
In drug development, late stage toxicity issues of a compound are the main cause of failure in clinical trials. In silico methods are therefore of high importance to guide the early design process to reduce time, costs and animal testing. Technical a...
