Applications of machine learning in computer-aided drug discovery

Year: 2022
Type: review
Abstract: Machine learning (ML) has revolutionised the field of structure-based drug design (SBDD) in recent years. During the training stage, ML techniques typically analyse large amounts of experimentally determined data to create predictive models in order to inform the drug discovery process. Deep learning (DL) is a subfield of ML, that relies on multiple layers of a neural network to extract significantly more complex patterns from experimental data, and has recently become a popular choice in SBDD. This review provides a thorough summary of the recent DL trends in SBDD with a particular focus on de novo drug design, binding site prediction, and binding affinity prediction of small molecules.
