基于支持向量学习机方法的人体小肠吸收药物活性的预测

为了预测分子在人体小肠中的吸收,本文计算了表征分子的电子、拓扑、几何结构、分子形状等特征的102个分子描述符,用遗传算法变量选择方法使描述符减少到47个。体系共包含了230个化合物分子,69个不能被吸收(mA-),161个可以被吸收(HIA )。对建立的SVM模型,用5重交叉验证和独立测试集进行验证,预测正确率分别达到79．1％和77．1％,结果具有较好的一致性。在模型验证中,通过聚类分析方法组合训练集和测试集,保证了模型的稳定性,提高了建模效率。     

机器学习方法用于选择性环氧化酶-2抑制剂活性预测模型的建立

与传统的非甾体类消炎药相比,选择性环氧化酶-2抑制剂具有无胃肠道粘膜损伤,溃疡和肾功能障碍等严重的副作用,设计选择性环氧化酶-2抑制剂具有重要意义。本文用支持矢量学习机和神经网络两种机器学习方法建立选择性环氧化酶-2抑制剂的活性预测模型,以期为选择性环氧化酶-2抑制剂药物的合成提供先导化合物。我们将467个环氧化酶-2抑制剂用Kennard-Stone方法分为训练集,验证集和独立测试集,对每一抑制剂分子我们计算了463个包含组成描述符和拓扑描述符的分子描述符来表征其分子结构,并通过F-Score方法选取最重要的分子描述符用于分类模型的建立。结果表明,SVM方法通过变量筛选后具有很好的预测能力,其预测正确率达到93.30%。

Comparison of criteria used to access carcinogenicity in CPANN QSAR models versus the knowledge-based expert system Toxtree

The primary goal of this study was to describe and compare the criteria used to assess carcinogenic activity. The statistically-based predictive quantitative structure–activity relationship (QSAR) models based on the counter propagation artificial neural network (CPANN) algorithm, and knowledge-based expert systems based on a decision tree structural alert (SA) approach (Toxtree application), were considered. The integration of the QSAR (CPANN models) and SAR (Toxtree SA application) approach contributed to the mechanistic understanding of the QSAR model considered. The mapping technique inherent to CPANN Kohonen enables us to relate the similarities or dissimilarities within a congeneric set of chemicals with particular SAs for carcinogenicity. The focus of our investigations was the similarities and dissimilarities of the features used in the QSAR and SAR methods. Due to the complexity of the carcinogenic endpoint, the integration of different approaches allows the models to be improved and provides a valuable technique for evaluating the safety of chemicals.
