Zhang, Shuxing Golbraikh, Alexander Oloff, Scott Kohn, Harold Tropsha, Alexander A Novel Automated Lazy Learning QSAR (ALL-QSAR) Approach:  Method Development, Applications, and Virtual Screening of Chemical Databases Using Validated ALL-QSAR Models A novel automated lazy learning quantitative structure−activity relationship (ALL-QSAR) modeling approach has been developed on the basis of the lazy learning theory. The activity of a test compound is predicted from a locally weighted linear regression model using chemical descriptors and the biological activity of the training set compounds most chemically similar to this test compound. The weights with which training set compounds are included in the regression depend on the similarity of those compounds to a test compound. We have applied the ALL-QSAR method to several experimental chemical data sets including 48 anticonvulsant agents with known ED<sub>50</sub> values, 48 dopamine D<sub>1</sub>-receptor antagonists with known competitive binding affinities (<i>K</i><i><sub>i</sub></i>), and a <i>Tetrahymena </i><i>pyriformis</i> data set containing 250 phenolic compounds with toxicity IGC<sub>50</sub> values. When applied to database screening, models developed for anticonvulsant agents identified several known anticonvulsant compounds that were not only absent in the training set but highly chemically dissimilar to the training set compounds. This initial success indicates that ALL-QSAR can be further exploited as a general tool for accurate bioactivity prediction and database screening in drug design and discovery. Because of its local nature, the ALL-QSAR approach appears to be especially well-suited for the development of highly predictive models for the sparse or unevenly distributed data sets. toxicity IGC 50 values;48 anticonvulsant agents;test compound;training;chemical data sets;250 phenolic compounds;Novel Automated Lazy Learning QSAR;Tetrahymena pyriformis data;database screening;ED 50 values 2006-09-25
