Bioactive molecule prediction using majority voting-based ensemble method

The current rise in the amount of data generated has necessitated the use of machine learning in the drug discovery process to increase productivity. It is therefore important to predict molecular compounds which are biologically active and capable of drug-target interaction. Various machine learnin...

description The current rise in the amount of data generated has necessitated the use of machine learning in the drug discovery process to increase productivity.

Various machine learning methods have been used in predicting bioactive molecular compounds in order to deal with the large volume of data being generated. This study investigates the Majority Voting ensemble method using different combinations of 5 commonly-used machine learning algorithms, including Support Vector Machine, Decision Tree, Naïve Bayes, k-Nearest Neighbor, and Random Forest on three chemical datasets DS1, DS2, and DS3 which consist of structurally heterogeneous and homogeneous molecules and are commonly used in other studies.
