This study presents a quantitative read-across structure-property relationship (q-RASPR) approach that integrates the chemical similarity information used in read-across with traditional quantitative structure-property relationship (QSPR) models. This novel framework is applied to predict the physicochemical properties and environmental behaviors of persistent organic pollutants, specifically polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) and polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs). By utilizing a curated dataset and incorporating similarity-based descriptors, the q-RASPR approach improves the accuracy of predictions, particularly for compounds with limited experimental data. The models' performances were assessed using internal cross-validation and external testing, demonstrating significant enhancements in predictive reliability compared to conventional QSPR models. The findings highlight the potential of q-RASPR for use in regulatory risk assessments and optimizing remediation strategies by providing more precise insights into the environmental fate of these contaminants.

The Bioconcentration Factor (BCF) is used to evaluate the bioaccumulation potential of chemical substances in reference organisms, and it directly correlates with ecotoxicity. Traditional BCF estimation methods are costly, time-consuming, and involve animal sacrifice. Many technologies are used to avoid the problems associated with testing.

The application of various in-silico-based approaches for the prediction of various properties of materials has been an effective alternative to experimental methods. Recently, the concepts of Quantitative structure-property relationship (QSPR) and read-across (RA) methods were merged to develop a new emerging chemoinformatic tool: read-across structure-property relationship (RASPR). The RASPR method can be applicable to both large and small datasets as it uses various similarity and error-based measures.

The retention time (log ) of pesticidal compounds in a reverse-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) analysis has a direct relationship with lipophilicity, which could be related to the ecotoxicity potential of the compounds. The novel quantitative read-across structure-property relationship (q-RASPR) modeling approach uses similarity-based descriptors for predictive model generation. These models have been shown to enhance external predictivity in previous studies for several end points.

In this study, the specific surface area of various perovskites was modeled using a novel quantitative read-across structure-property relationship (q-RASPR) approach, which clubs both Read-Across (RA) and quantitative structure-property relationship (QSPR) together. After optimization of the hyper-parameters, certain similarity-based error measures for each query compound were obtained. Clubbing some of these error-based measures with the previously selected features along with the Read-Across prediction function, a number of machine learning models were developed using Partial Least Squares (PLS), Ridge Regression (RR), Linear Support Vector Regression (LSVR), Random Forest (RF) regression, Gradient Boost (GBoost), Adaptive Boosting (Adaboost), Multiple Layer Perceptron (MLP) regression and k-Nearest Neighbor (kNN) regression.
