SimBoost: a read-across approach for predicting drug–target binding affinities using gradient boosting machines

Abstract Computational prediction of the interaction between drugs and targets is a standing challenge in the field of drug discovery. A number of rather accurate predictions were reported for various binary drug–target benchmark datasets. However, a notable drawback of a binary representation of in...
