Adapting Deep Learning QSPR Models to Specific Drug Discovery Projects.

Medicinal chemistry and drug design efforts can be assisted by machine learning (ML) models that relate the molecular structure to compound properties. Such quantitative structure-property relationship models are generally trained on large data sets that include diverse chemical series (global models). In the pharmaceutical industry, these ML global models are available across discovery projects as an "out-of-the-box" solution to assist in drug design, synthesis prioritization, and experiment selection.

Association of digital measures and self-reported fatigue: a remote observational study in healthy participants and participants with chronic inflammatory rheumatic disease.

Background: Fatigue is a subjective, complex and multi-faceted phenomenon, commonly experienced as tiredness. However, pathological fatigue is a major debilitating symptom associated with overwhelming feelings of physical and mental exhaustion. It is a well-recognized manifestation in chronic inflammatory rheumatic diseases, such as Sjögren's Syndrome and Systemic Lupus Erythematosus and an important predictor of patient's health-related quality of life (HRQoL).

Systematic Evaluation of Local and Global Machine Learning Models for the Prediction of ADME Properties.

Machine learning (ML) has become an indispensable tool to predict absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion (ADME) properties in pharmaceutical research. ML algorithms are trained on molecular structures and corresponding ADME assay data to develop quantitative structure-property relationship (QSPR) models. Traditional QSPR models were trained on compound sets of limited size.
