High accuracy is paramount when predicting biochemical characteristics using Quantitative Structural-Property Relationships (QSPRs). Although existing graph-theoretic kernel methods combined with machine learning techniques are efficient for QSPR model construction, they cannot distinguish topologically identical chiral compounds which often exhibit different biological characteristics. In this paper, we propose a new method that extends the recently developed tree pattern graph kernel to accommodate stereoisomers. We show that Support Vector Regression (SVR) with a chiral graph kernel is useful for target property prediction by demonstrating its application to a set of human vitamin D receptor ligands currently under consideration for their potential anti-cancer effects.

Climate change and recurrent droughts challenge wheat production and yield, necessitating careful selection and plant breeding research. "Value for Cultivation and Use" experiments are crucial for assessing genetic gains and providing information about potential pathways to alleviate production losses under specific environmental conditions. The goal of the study was to compare the grain yield and quality characteristics of 46 registered bread wheat cultivars in 5 out of 7 agro-ecological regions of Türkiye between 2016-2017 and 2017-2018.

Predicting reaction barriers for arbitrary configurations based on only a limited set of density functional theory (DFT) calculations would render the design of catalysts or the simulation of reactions within complex materials highly efficient. We here propose Gaussian process regression (GPR) as a method of choice if DFT calculations are limited to hundreds or thousands of barrier calculations. For the case of hydrogen atom transfer in proteins, an important reaction in chemistry and biology, we obtain a mean absolute error of 3.

Papermaking wastewater consists of a sizable amount of industrial wastewater; hence, real-time access to precise and trustworthy effluent indices is crucial. Because wastewater treatment processes are complicated, nonlinear, and time-varying, it is essential to adequately monitor critical quality indices, especially chemical oxygen demand (COD). Traditional models for predicting COD often struggle with sensitivity to parameter tuning and lack interpretability, underscoring the need for improvement in industrial wastewater treatment.

Graph neural networks have excellent performance and powerful representation capabilities, and have been widely used to handle Few-shot image classification problems. The feature extraction module of graph neural networks has always been designed as a fixed convolutional neural network (CNN), but due to the intrinsic properties of convolution operations, its receiving domain is limited. This method has limitations in capturing global feature information and easily ignores key feature information of the image.
