Support vector machine (SVM) and general regression neural network (GRNN) were used to develop classification models for predicting the antimalarial activity against Plasmodium falciparum. Only 15 molecular descriptors were used to build the classification models for the antimalarial activities of 4750 compounds, which were divided into a training set (3887 compounds) and a test set (863 compounds). For the SVM model, its prediction accuracies are 89.5% for the training set and 87.3% for the test set. For the GRNN model, the prediction accuracies for the two sets are 99.7% and 88.9%, respectively. Both SVC and GRNN models have better prediction ability than the classification model based on binary logistic regression (BLR) analysis. Compared with previously published classification models both SVC and GRNN models are satisfactory in predicting antimalarial activities of compounds with in addition of fewer descriptors.

D016571 Neural Networks, Computer A computer architecture, implementable in either hardware or software, modeled after biological neural networks. Like the biological system in which the processing capability is a result of the interconnection strengths between arrays of nonlinear processing nodes, computerized neural networks, often called perceptrons or multilayer connectionist models, consist of neuron-like units. A homogeneous group of units makes up a layer. These networks are good at pattern recognition. They are adaptive, performing tasks by example, and thus are better for decision-making than are linear learning machines or cluster analysis. They do not require explicit programming.
