| 14:00 - 15:00 Weekly Seminar Do the Similarities Between Drugs Significantly Impact the Performance of Drug-Target Prediction Methods? School BIOLOGICAL SCIENCES Predicting drug-target interactions (DTIs) has become a significant issue in bioinformatics, as it represents a crucial initial step in drug repositioning. Consequently, researchers are working to develop more accurate computational methods for DTI prediction. These methods are typically based on machine learning or recommender systems and incorporate biological and chemical information to enhance prediction accuracy. A fundamental assumption underlying these approaches is that drugs with similar chemical structures are likely to share similar targets. Therefore, chemical similarity between drugs is integrated into computational methods to im ... |
