Microalgae can produce secondary metabolites like phycoerythrin (Phy). The effects of some microplastics (MPs), wastewater (WW), and light intensity (LI) parameters, including complex data sets, on Phy concentration from Porphyridium cruentum were investigated using machine learning methods in this study. Also, the deep learning (DL) model was developed to get the maximum phy concentration from the dataset.

Bioethanol production from algal biomass is a promising alternative for sustainable biofuel production. Algae possess a high photosynthetic capacity and an adaptive ability to thrive under harsh environmental conditions. The potential properties of Scenedesmus acuminatus CCALA 436 were assessed in this research for its bioethanol efficiency, and the effects of growing the algae in wastewater and at different concentrations of mepiquat chloride were studied.

The aim of the present study was to investigate the efficiencies of carbohydrate and bioethanol production by Chlorella saccharophila CCALA 258 using experimental, semiempirical, and theoretical methods, such as response surface methods (RSMs) and an artificial neural network (ANN) through sequential modeling. In addition, the interactive response surface modeling for determining the optimum conditions for the variables was assessed.

Background: Virtual screening of candidate drug molecules using machine learning techniques plays a key role in pharmaceutical industry to design and discovery of new drugs. Computational classification methods can determine drug types according to the disease groups and distinguish approved drugs from withdrawn ones.
Introduction: Classification models developed in this study can be used as a simple filter in drug modelling to eliminate potentially inappropriate molecules in the early stages.

Background And Objectives: Early-phase virtual screening of candidate drug molecules plays a key role in pharmaceutical industry from data mining and machine learning to prevent adverse effects of the drugs. Computational classification methods can distinguish approved drugs from withdrawn ones. We focused on 6 data sets including maximum 110 approved and 110 withdrawn drugs for all and nervous system diseases to distinguish approved drugs from withdrawn ones.
