Predictiveness curves in virtual screening
BACKGROUND In the present work, we aim to transfer to the field of virtual screening the predictiveness curve, a metric that has been advocated in clinical epidemiology. The literature describes the use of predictiveness curves to evaluate the performances of biological markers to formulate diagnoses, prognoses and assess disease risks, assess the fit of risk models, and estimate the clinical u...
متن کاملSpline-based models for predictiveness curves and surfaces.
A biomarker is defined to be a biological characteristic that is objectively measured and evaluated as an indicator of normal biologic processes, pathogenic processes, or pharmacologic responses to a therapeutic intervention. The use of biomarkers in cancer has been advocated for a variety of purposes, which include use as surrogate endpoints, early detection of disease, proxies for environment...
متن کاملAutomatic and Instructed Attention in Learned Predictiveness
In novel situations, learning is biased towards information that has a degree of prior predictive utility. In human learning, this is termed the learned predictiveness effect and has proved critical in theorising about the role of attention in learning. Two experiments are reported in which the relative contribution of controlled and automatic processes to learned predictiveness are investigate...
متن کاملPharmacophore Based Virtual Screening Approach to Identify Selective PDE4B Inhibitors
Phosphodiesterase 4 (PDE4) has been established as a promising target in asthma andchronic obstructive pulmonary disease. PDE4B subtype selective inhibitors are known toreduce the dose limiting adverse effect associated with non-selective PDE4B inhibitors. Thismakes the development of PDE4B subtype selective inhibitors a desirable research goal. Toachieve this goal, ligand based pharmacophore m...
متن کاملMachine learning in virtual screening.
In this review, we highlight recent applications of machine learning to virtual screening, focusing on the use of supervised techniques to train statistical learning algorithms to prioritize databases of molecules as active against a particular protein target. Both ligand-based similarity searching and structure-based docking have benefited from machine learning algorithms, including naïve Baye...
