Machine Learning And Bioinformatic Insights Into Key Enzymes For A Bio-Based Circular Economy, Japheth E. Gado
Machine Learning And Bioinformatic Insights Into Key Enzymes For A Bio-Based Circular Economy, Japheth E. Gado
Theses and Dissertations--Chemical and Materials Engineering
The world is presently faced with a sustainability crisis; it is becoming increasingly difficult to meet the energy and material needs of a growing global population without depleting and polluting our planet. Greenhouse gases released from the continuous combustion of fossil fuels engender accelerated climate change, and plastic waste accumulates in the environment. There is need for a circular economy, where energy and materials are renewably derived from waste items, rather than by consuming limited resources. Deconstruction of the recalcitrant linkages in natural and synthetic polymers is crucial for a circular economy, as deconstructed monomers can be used to manufacture …

Scalable Feature Selection And Extraction With Applications In Kinase Polypharmacology, Derek Jones
Theses and Dissertations--Computer Science
In order to reduce the time associated with and the costs of drug discovery, machine learning is being used to automate much of the work in this process. However the size and complex nature of molecular data makes the application of machine learning especially challenging. Much work must go into the process of engineering features that are then used to train machine learning models, costing considerable amounts of time and requiring the knowledge of domain experts to be most effective. The purpose of this work is to demonstrate data driven approaches to perform the feature selection and extraction steps in …
