title: Modeling of cyclin-dependent kinase inhibition by 1H-pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidine derivatives using artificial neural network ensembles.
abstract: Artificial neural network ensembles were used for modeling the cyclin-dependent kinase inhibition of 1H-pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidine derivatives. The structural characteristics of these inhibitors were encoded in relevant 3D-spatial descriptors extracted by genetic algorithm feature selection. Bayesian-regularized multilayer neural networks, trained by the back-propagation algorithm, were developed using these variables as inputs. The predictive power of the model was tested by leave-one-out cross validation. In addition, for a more rigorous measure of the predictive capacity, multiple validation sets were randomly generated as members of neural network ensembles, which makes doing averaged predictions feasible. In this way, the predictive power was analyzed accounting for the averaged test set R values and test set mean-square errors. Otherwise, Kohonen self-organizing maps were used as an additional tool for the same modeling. The location of the inhibitors in a map facilitates the analysis of the connection between compounds and serves as a useful tool for qualitative predictions.
