题目:Machine learning in drug development

报告人:Jian Zhang(Professor, University of Kent, Canterbury, UK)

摘要:

The traditional drug discovery is based on the so-called trial-and-error paradigm. Over the past two decades, this paradigm has been dramatically changed due to the availability of large biomedical and pharmacological data and the rapid growth in computing power. In particular, this change has triggered a wave of developing advanced machine learning algorithms to make sense of these data, i.e. identifying low-dimensional patterns in high-dimensional data space. In this talk, I will review our recent developments in this field.
