Beware of q2

TL;DR: It is argued that the high value of LOO q2 appears to be the necessary but not the sufficient condition for the model to have a high predictive power, which is the general property of QSAR models developed using LOO cross-validation.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Importance of Being Earnest: Validation is the Absolute Essential for Successful Application and Interpretation of QSPR Models

TL;DR: A set of simple guidelines for developing validated and predictive QSPR models is presented, highlighting the need to establish the domain of model applicability in the chemical space to flag molecules for which predictions may be unreliable, and some algorithms that can be used for this purpose.
Journal ArticleDOI

Best Practices for QSAR Model Development, Validation, and Exploitation.

TL;DR: Most critical QSAR modeling routines that are regarded as best practices in the field are examined, including procedures used to validate models, both internally and externally, as well as the need to define model applicability domains that should be used when models are employed for the prediction of external compounds or compound libraries.
Journal ArticleDOI

Deep reinforcement learning for de novo drug design

TL;DR: The ReLeaSE method is used to design chemical libraries with a bias toward structural complexity or toward compounds with maximal, minimal, or specific range of physical properties, such as melting point or hydrophobicity.
