Co-complex protein membership evaluation using Maximum Entropy on GO ontology and InterPro annotation.

Motivation: Protein-protein interactions (PPI) play a crucial role in our understanding of protein function and biological processes. The standardization and recording of experimental findings is increasingly stored in ontologies, with the Gene Ontology (GO) being one of the most successful projects. Several PPI evaluation algorithms have been based on the application of probabilistic frameworks or machine learning algorithms to GO properties.

Multiple Kernel Learning for Drug Discovery.

The support vector machine (SVM) methodology has become a popular and well-used component of present chemometric analysis. We assess a relatively recent development of the algorithm, multiple kernel learning (MKL), on published structure-property relationship (SPR) data. The MKL algorithm learns a weighting across multiple kernel-based representations of the data during supervised classifier creation and, thereby, may be used to describe the influence of distinct groups of structural descriptors upon a single structure-property classifier without explicitly omitting any of them.
