In a new Practical Cheminformatics post titled "Even More Thoughts on ML Method Comparisons," I share several plots that I find valuable for comparing machine learning methods.

Determine bond order from XYZ format of molecule #RDKit
As readers know that recent version of RDKit supports XYZ format which is used in quantum chemistry field. The format doesn't have information of bond order. So to re-construct from the information bond order determination step is required.…

Deep learning for proteins tutorial: github.com/Graylab/DL4P...
As readers know that recent version of RDKit supports XYZ format which is used in quantum chemistry field. The format doesn't have information of bond order. So to re-construct from the information bond order determination step is required. Recently I found useful function for determining the order in rdkit and Greg wrote useful post almost two years ago I think it's worth to read.
Excellent new paper (with code) by my former colleagues Steven Kearnes and Patrick Riley describing a procedure for associating confidence levels with regression model predictions in drug discovery. pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/...

IntroductionOne factor often overlooked when applying machine learning (ML) in small-molecule drug discovery is the influence of tautomers on model predictions. Drug-like molecules, especially those c...
We present a simple method for assigning accurate confidence levels to molecular property predictions from regression models. These confidence levels are easy to interpret and useful for making decisi...
