A central issue in drug risk-benefit assessment is identifying frequencies of side effects in humans. Currently, frequencies are experimentally determined in randomised controlled clinical trials. We present a machine learning framework for computati...
Various types of drug toxicity can halt the development of a drug. Because drugs are xenobiotics, they inherently have the potential to cause injury. Clarifying the mechanisms of toxicity to evaluate and manage drug safety during drug development is ...
Adverse drug events (ADEs) are unintended incidents that involve the taking of a medication. ADEs pose significant health and financial problems worldwide. Information about ADEs can inform health care and improve patient safety. However, much of thi...
Artificial neural networks are the main tools for data mining and were inspired by the human brain and nervous system. Studies have demonstrated their usefulness in medicine. However, no studies have used artificial neural networks for the prediction...

Biomedical data are complex and heterogeneous. An ample reliable quantity of data is important for understanding and exploring the domain. The work aims to integrate biomedical data from various heterogeneous sources like dictionaries or corpus and a...
BACKGROUND: Adverse drug reactions (ADRs) are one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality in health care. Understanding which drug targets are linked to ADRs can lead to the development of safer medicines.
During the development of new drugs or compounds there is a requirement for preclinical trials, commonly involving animal tests, to ascertain the safety of the compound prior to human trials. Machine learning techniques could provide an in-silico alt...
Drug-induced liver injury (DILI) is one the most unpredictable adverse reactions to xenobiotics in humans and the leading cause of postmarketing withdrawals of approved drugs. To date, these drugs have been collated by the FDA to form the DILIRank da...
