What Counts as External Validation in QSAR Modelling across Scaffolds, Assays, Laboratories, Chemical Series, and Historical Time?

Year: 2025

Abstract: External validation is frequently treated as a binary property of quantitative structure–activity relationship models, although evaluation sets can differ from development data along chemically and experimentally distinct dimensions. A holdout may be structurally distant yet generated in the same assay and laboratory, chronologically later yet dominated by familiar chemical series, or externally sourced while retaining substantial analogue overlap.
