Extended Functional Groups (EFG): An Efficient Set for Chemical Characterization and Structure-Activity Relationship Studies of Chemical Compounds
TLDR
An extension of a set previously used by the CheckMol software that covers in addition heterocyclic compound classes and periodic table groups is described, which demonstrates that EFG can be efficiently used to develop and interpret structure-activity relationship models.Abstract:
The article describes a classification system termed "extended functional groups" (EFG), which are an extension of a set previously used by the CheckMol software, that covers in addition heterocyclic compound classes and periodic table groups. The functional groups are defined as SMARTS patterns and are available as part of the ToxAlerts tool (http://ochem.eu/alerts) of the On-line CHEmical database and Modeling (OCHEM) environment platform. The article describes the motivation and the main ideas behind this extension and demonstrates that EFG can be efficiently used to develop and interpret structure-activity relationship models.read more

Insights into the Nature of Eutectic and Deep Eutectic Mixtures
TL;DR: In this article, a stricter definition of a deep eutectic solvent (DES) is proposed, for which the point temperature should be lower than that of an ideal liquid mixture, and hydrogen bonding between the DES components should not be used to define or characterize a DES.

TL;DR: Internal estimates monitor error, strength, and correlation and these are used to show the response to increasing the number of features used in the forest, and are also applicable to regression.

Group‐contribution estimation of activity coefficients in nonideal liquid mixtures
TL;DR: In this article, a group-contribution method is presented for the prediction of activity coefficients in nonelectrolyte liquid mixtures, which combines the solution-of-functional-groups concept with a model for activity coefficients based on an extension of the quasi chemical theory of liquid mixture (UNIQUAC).
