TLDR
SVMs are currently among the best-performing approaches for chemical and biological property prediction and the computational identification of active compounds and it is anticipated that their use in drug discovery will further increase.
Abstract
Introduction: Support vector machines (SVMs) are supervised machine learning algorithms for binary class label prediction and regression-based prediction of property values. In recent years, SVMs h...

A novel logic-based approach for quantitative toxicology prediction

TL;DR: The SVILP approach has a major advantage in that it uses ILP automatically and consistently to derive rules, mostly novel, describing fragments that are toxicity alerts, and has the potential of tackling many problems relevant to chemoinformatics including in silico drug design.

Computational profiling of bioactive compounds using a target-dependent composite workflow.

TL;DR: An automated workflow using several methods to optimally browse target-ligand space according to existing knowledge on either ligand and target space under investigation was remarkably accurate in identifying the main target of 189 clinical candidates and proposed two novel off-targets which could be experimentally validated.

StructRank: a new approach for ligand-based virtual screening.

TL;DR: This paper proposes a top-k ranking algorithm (StructRank) based on Support Vector Machines to solve the early recognition problem directly and shows that this ranking approach outperforms not only regression methods but another ranking approach recently proposed for QSAR ranking, RankSVM, in terms of actives found.
