Old drug repositioning and new drug discovery through similarity learning from drug-target joint feature spaces

Abstract Background Detection of new drug-target interactions by computational algorithms is of crucial value to both old drug repositioning and new drug discovery. Existing machine-learning methods rely only on experimentally validated drug-target interactions (i.e., positive samples) for the predi...
