Benchmarking Machine Learning Methods For Molecular Property Prediction, Govinda Bahadur Kc

Open Access Theses & Dissertations

Machine learning (ML) techniques have been widely applied in a variety of areas ranging from pattern recognition, natural language processing, and computer games to self-driving cars, clinical diagnostics, and molecular structure prediction easing day to day life of human beings. Drug discovery is an expensive, complex, and time taking process. Currently, the pharma industry is hoping to leverage machine learning methods in expediting the drug discovery process. Molecular property prediction is one of the most important tasks in drug discovery. While developing a new drug relies on a proper understanding of molecular properties, there has been great interest in the …
