A Ligand-Based Virtual Screening Method Using Direct Quantification of Generalization Ability [PDF]
Machine learning plays an important role in ligand-based virtual screening. However, conventional machine learning approaches tend to be inefficient when dealing with such problems where the data are imbalanced and features describing the chemical ...

Discovery of Novel Allosteric Modulators Targeting an Extra-Helical Binding Site of GLP-1R Using Structure- and Ligand-Based Virtual Screening [PDF]
Allosteric modulators have emerged with many potential pharmacological advantages as they do not compete the binding of agonist or antagonist to the orthosteric sites but ultimately affect downstream signaling. To identify allosteric modulators targeting

Applying Machine Learning to Ultrafast Shape Recognition in Ligand-Based Virtual Screening [PDF]
Ultrafast Shape Recognition (USR), along with its derivatives, are Ligand-Based Virtual Screening (LBVS) methods that condense 3-dimensional information about molecular shape, as well as other properties, into a small set of numeric descriptors.

Implicit-descriptor ligand-based virtual screening by means of collaborative filtering [PDF]
Current ligand-based machine learning methods in virtual screening rely heavily on molecular fingerprinting for preprocessing, i.e., explicit description of ligands’ structural and physicochemical properties in a vectorized form. Of particular importance
