Drug discovery and development is a long and expensive process and over time has notoriously bucked Moore’s law that it now has its own law called Eroom’s Law named after it (the opposite of Moore’s). It is estimated that the attrition rate of drug candidates is up to 96% and the average cost to develop a new drug has reached almost $2.5 billion in recent years. One of the major causes for the high attrition rate is drug safety, which accounts for 30% of the failures.
Even if a drug is approved in market, it could be withdrawn due to safety problems. Therefore, evaluating drug safety extensively as early as possible is paramount in accelerating drug discovery and development. This talk provides a high-level overview of the current process of rational drug design that has been in place for many decades and covers some of the major areas where the application of AI, Deep learning and ML based techniques have had the most gains.
Specifically, this talk covers a variety of drug safety related AI and ML based techniques currently in use which can generally divided into 3 main categories:
1. Discovery,
2. Toxicity and Safety, and
3. Post-Market Monitoring.
We will address the recent progress in predictive models and techniques built for various toxicities. It will also cover some publicly available databases, tools and platforms available to easily leverage them.
We will also compare and contrast various modeling techniques including deep learning techniques and their accuracy using recent research. Finally, the talk will address some of the remaining challenges and limitations yet to be addressed in the area of drug discovery and safety assessment.

Drug Repurposing using Deep Learning on Knowledge GraphsDatabricks
Discovering new drugs is a lengthy and expensive process. This means that finding new uses for existing drugs can help create new treatments in less time and with less time. The difficulty is in finding these potential new uses.
How do we find these undiscovered uses for existing drugs?
We can unify the available structured and unstructured data sets into a knowledge graph. This is done by fusing the structured data sets, and performing named entity extraction on the unstructured data sets. Once this is done, we can use deep learning techniques to predict latent relationships.

Genome-wide transcription profiling is a powerful technique in studying disease susceptible footprints. Moreover, when applied to disease tissue it may reveal quantitative and qualitative alterations in gene expression that give information on the context or underlying basis for the disease and may provide a new diagnostic approach. However, the data obtained from high-density microarrays is highly complex and poses considerable challenges in data mining. Past researches prove that neuro diseases damage the brain network interaction, protein- protein interaction and gene-gene interaction. A number of neurological research paper also analyze the relationship among damaged part. Analysis of gene-gene interaction network drawn by using state-of-the-art gene database of Alzheimer’s patient can conclude a lot of information. In this paper we used gene dataset affected with Alzheimer’s disease and normal patient’s dataset from NCBI databank. After proper processing the .CEL affymetrix data using RMA, we use the processed data to find gene interaction outputs. Then we filter the output files using probe set filtering attributes p-value and fold count and draw a gene-gene interaction network. Then we analyze the interaction network using GeneMania software.

Network embedding in biomedical data scienceArindam Ghosh
Excerpts from the paper:
What is it?
Network embedding aims at converting the network into a low-dimensional space while structural information of the network is preserved.
In this way, nodes and/or edges of the network can be represented as compacted yet informative vectors in the embedding space.
Advantages:
Typical non-network-based machine learning methods such as linear regression, Support Vector Machine (SVM) and decision forest, which have been demonstrated to be effective and efficient as the state-of-the-art techniques, can be applied to such vectors.
Current status:
Efforts of applying network embedding to improve biomedical data analysis are already planned or underway.
Difficulties:
The biomedical networks are sparse, noisy, incomplete, heterogeneous and usually consist of biomedical text and other domain knowledge. It makes embedding tasks more complicated than other application fields.
Evaluation of Logistic Regression and Neural Network Model With Sensitivity A...CSCJournals
Logistic Regression (LR) is a well known classification method in the field of statistical learning. It allows probabilistic classification and shows promising results on several benchmark problems. Logistic regression enables us to investigate the relationship between a categorical outcome and a set of explanatory variables. Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) are popularly used as universal non-linear inference models and have gained extensive popularity in recent years. Research activities are considerable and literature is growing. The goal of this research work is to compare the performance of Logistic Regression and Neural Network models on publicly available medical datasets. The evaluation process of the model is as follows. The logistic regression and neural network methods with sensitivity analysis have been evaluated for the effectiveness of the classification. The Classification Accuracy is used to measure the performance of both the models. From the experimental results it is confirmed that the neural network model with sensitivity analysis model gives more efficient result.

Review on Computational Bioinformatics and Molecular Modelling Novel Tool for...ijtsrd
Advancement in science and technology has brought a remarkable change in the field of drug discovery. Earlier it was very difficult to predict the target for receptor but nowadays, it is easy and robust task to dock the target protein with ligand and binding affinity is calculated. Docking helps in the virtual screening of drug along with its hit identification. There are two approaches through which docking can be carried out, shape complementary and stimulation approach. There are many procedures involved in carrying out docking and all require different software's and algorithms. Molecular docking serves as a good platform to screen a large number of ligands and is useful in Drug-DNA studies. This review mainly focuses on the general idea of molecular docking and discusses its major applications, different types of interaction involved and types of docking.

Design and development of learning model for compression and processing of d...IJECEIAES
Owing to the substantial volume of human genome sequence data files (from 30-200 GB exposed) Genomic data compression has received considerable traction and storage costs are one of the major problems faced by genomics laboratories. This involves a modern technology of data compression that reduces not only the storage but also the reliability of the operation. There were few attempts to solve this problem independently of both hardware and software. A systematic analysis of associations between genes provides techniques for the recognition of operative connections among genes and their respective yields, as well as understandings into essential biological events that are most important for knowing health and disease phenotypes. This research proposes a reliable and efficient deep learning system for learning embedded projections to combine gene interactions and gene expression in prediction comparison of deep embeddings to strong baselines. In this paper we preform data processing operations and predict gene function, along with gene ontology reconstruction and predict the gene interaction. The three major steps of genomic data compression are extraction of data, storage of data, and retrieval of the data. Hence, we propose a deep learning based on computational optimization techniques which will be efficient in all the three stages of data compression.
DSAGLSTM-DTA: Prediction of Drug-Target Affinity using Dual Self-Attention an...mlaij
The research on affinity between drugs and targets (DTA) aims to effectively narrow the target search space for drug repurposing. Therefore, reasonable prediction of drug and target affinities can minimize the waste of resources such as human and material resources. In this work, a novel graph-based model called DSAGLSTM-DTA was proposed for DTA prediction. The proposed model is unlike previous graph-based drug-target affinity model, which incorporated self-attention mechanisms in the feature extraction process of drug molecular graphs to fully extract its effective feature representations. The features of each atom in the 2D molecular graph were weighted based on attention score before being aggregated as molecule representation and two distinct pooling architectures, namely centralized and distributed architectures were implemented and compared on benchmark datasets. In addition, in the course of processing protein sequences, inspired by the approach of protein feature extraction in GDGRU-DTA, we continue to interpret protein sequences as time series and extract their features using Bidirectional Long Short-Term Memory (BiLSTM) networks, since the context-dependence of long amino acid sequences. Similarly, DSAGLSTM-DTA also utilized a self-attention mechanism in the process of protein feature extraction to obtain comprehensive representations of proteins, in which the final hidden states for element in the batch were weighted with the each unit output of LSTM, and the results were represented as the final feature of proteins. Eventually, representations of drug and protein were concatenated and fed into prediction block for final prediction. The proposed model was evaluated on different regression datasets and binary classification datasets, and the results demonstrated that DSAGLSTM-DTA was superior to some state-ofthe-art DTA models and exhibited good generalization ability.

Statistical Analysis based Hypothesis Testing Method in Biological Knowledge ...ijcsa
The correlation and interactions among different biological entities comprise the biological system. Although already revealed interactions contribute to the understanding of different existing systems, researchers face many questions everyday regarding inter-relationships among entities. Their queries have potential role in exploring new relations which may open up a new area of investigation. In this paper, we introduce a text mining based method for answering the biological queries in terms of statistical computation such that researchers can come up with new knowledge discovery. It facilitates user to submit their query in natural linguistic form which can be treated as hypothesis. Our proposed approach analyzes the hypothesis and measures the p-value of the hypothesis with respect to the existing literature. Based on the measured value, the system either accepts or rejects the hypothesis from statistical point of view. Moreover, even it does not find any direct relationship among the entities of the hypothesis, it presents a network to give an integral overview of all the entities through which the entities might be related. This is also congenial for the researchers to widen their view and thus think of new hypothesis for further investigation. It assists researcher to get a quantitative evaluation of their assumptions such that they can reach a logical conclusion and thus aids in relevant re-searches of biological knowledge discovery. The system also provides the researchers a graphical interactive interface to submit their hypothesis for assessment in a more convenient way.

National Resource for Networks Biology's TR&D Theme 2: Genomics is mapping complex data about human biology and promises major medical advances. However, the routine use of genomics data in medical research is in its infancy, due mainly to the challenges of working with highly complex “big data”.

A novel optimized deep learning method for protein-protein prediction in bioi...IJECEIAES
Proteins have been shown to perform critical activities in cellular processes and are required for the organism's existence and proliferation. On complicated protein-protein interaction (PPI) networks, conventional centrality approaches perform poorly. Machine learning algorithms based on enormous amounts of data do not make use of biological information's temporal and spatial dimensions. As a result, we developed a sequence- dependent PPI prediction model using an Aquila and shark noses-based hybrid prediction technique. This model operates in two stages: feature extraction and prediction. The features are acquired using the semantic similarity technique for good results. The acquired features are utilized to predict the PPI using hybrid deep networks long short-term memory (LSTM) networks and restricted Boltzmann machines (RBMs). The weighting parameters of these neural networks (NNs) were changed using a novel optimization approach hybrid of aquila and shark noses (ASN), and the results revealed that our proposed ASN-based PPI prediction is more accurate and efficient than other existing techniques.
Artificial intelligence in the post-deep learning eraDeakin University
Deep learning has recently reached the heights that pioneers in the field had aspired to, serving as the driving force behind recent breakthroughs in AI, which have arguably surpassed the Turing test. At present, the spotlight is on scaling Transformers and diffusion models on Internet-scale data. In this talk, I will provide an overview of the fundamental principles of deep learning, its powers, and limitations, and explore the new era of post-deep learning. This new era encompasses novel objectives, dynamic architectures, abstract reasoning, neurosymbolic hybrid systems, and LLM-based agent systems.

AI for automated materials discovery via learning to represent, predict, gene...Deakin University
A brief overview of how our AI can help automate the materials discovery process, covering a wide range of problems, from drug design to crystal plasticity.
Deep learning, enabled by powerful compute, and fuelled by massive data, has delivered unprecedented data analytics capabilities. However, major limitations remain. Chiefly among those is that deep neural networks tend to exploit the surface statistics in the data, creating short-cuts from the input to the output, without really deeply understanding of the data. As a result, these networks fail miserably to generalize to novel combinations. This is because the networks perform shallow pattern matching but not deliberate reasoning – the capacity to deliberately deduce new knowledge out of the contextualized data. Second, machine learning is often trained to do just one task at a time, making it impossible to re-define tasks on the fly as needed in a complex operating environment. This talk presents our recent developments to extend the capacity of neural networks to remove these limitations. Our main focus is on learning to reason from data, that is, learning to determine if the data entails a conclusion. This capacity opens up new ways to generate insights from data through arbitrary querying using natural languages without the need of predefining a narrow set of tasks.
Generative AI represents a pivotal moment in computing history, opening up new opportunities for scientific discoveries. By harnessing extensive and diverse datasets, we can construct new general-purpose Foundation Models that can be fine-tuned for specific prediction and exploration tasks. This talk introduces our research program, which focuses on leveraging the power of Generative AI for materials discovery. Generative AI facilitates rapid exploration of vast materials design spaces, enabling the identification of new compounds and combinations. However, this field also presents significant challenges, such as effectively representing crystals in a compact manner and striking the right balance between utilizing known structural regions and venturing into unexplored territories. Our research delves into the development of a new kind of generative models specifically designed to search for diverse molecular/crystal regions that yield high returns, as defined by domain experts. In addition, our toolset includes Large Language Models that have been fine-tuned using materials literature and scientific knowledge. These models possess the ability to comprehend extensive volumes of materials literature, encompassing molecular string representations, mathematical equations in LaTeX, and codebases. We explore the open challenges, including effectively representing deep domain knowledge and implementing efficient querying techniques to address materials discovery problems.
AI as a general-purpose technology akin to steam engines and electricity, holds the potential for profound global socio-economic change. In this talk, we delve into a new form of disruptive AI known as Generative AI (GenAI) and its revolutionary impact on how we live, work, and interact with our environment. This discussion will cover GenAI’s arrival, capability and its impact. We will also discuss the challenges and opportunities that GenAI presents to industry leaders and practitioners including the defence sector. We'll explore its potential to reshape industries, push creative boundaries, and expand consolidated knowledge -- GenAI has become the cornerstone upon which new platforms, companies, and industries are built.
TL;DR: This tutorial was delivered at KDD 2021. Here we review recent developments to extend the capacity of neural networks to “learning to reason” from data, where the task is to determine if the data entails a conclusion.
The rise of big data and big compute has brought modern neural networks to many walks of digital life, thanks to the relative ease of construction of large models that scale to the real world. Current successes of Transformers and self-supervised pretraining on massive data have led some to believe that deep neural networks will be able to do almost everything whenever we have data and computational resources. However, this might not be the case. While neural networks are fast to exploit surface statistics, they fail miserably to generalize to novel combinations. Current neural networks do not perform deliberate reasoning – the capacity to deliberately deduce new knowledge out of the contextualized data. This tutorial reviews recent developments to extend the capacity of neural networks to “learning to reason” from data, where the task is to determine if the data entails a conclusion. This capacity opens up new ways to generate insights from data through arbitrary querying using natural languages without the need of predefining a narrow set of tasks.
The current deep learning revolution has brought unprecedented changes to how we live, learn, interact with the digital and physical worlds, run business and conduct sciences. These are made possible thanks to the relative ease of construction of massive neural networks that are flexible to train and scale up to the real world. But the flexibility is hitting the limits due to excessive demand of labelled data, the narrowness of the tasks, the failure to generalize beyond surface statistics to novel combinations, and the lack of the key mental faculty of deliberate reasoning. In this talk, I will present a multi-year research program to push deep learning to overcome these limitations. We aim to build dynamic neural networks that can train themselves with little labelled data, compress on-the-fly in response to resource constraints, and respond to arbitrary query about a context. The networks are equipped with capability to make use of external knowledge, and operate that the high-level of objects and relations. The long-term goal is to build persistent digital companions that co-live with us and other AI entities, understand our need and intention, and share our human values and norms. They will be capable of having natural conversations, remembering lifelong events, and learning in an open-ended fashion.
Deep Learning has taken the digital world by storm. As a general purpose technology, it is now present in all walks of life. Although the fundamental developments in methodology have been slowing down in the past few years, applications are flourishing with major breakthroughs in Computer Vision, NLP and Biomedical Sciences. The primary successes can be attributed to the availability of large labelled data, powerful GPU servers and programming frameworks, and advances in neural architecture engineering. This combination enables rapid construction of large, efficient neural networks that scale to the real world. But the fundamental questions of unsupervised learning, deep reasoning, and rapid contextual adaptation remain unsolved. We shall call what we currently have Deep Learning 1.0, and the next possible breakthroughs as Deep Learning 2.0.
This is part 2 of the Tutorial delivered at IEEE SSCI 2020, Canberra, December 1st (Virtual).

Medical Technology Tackles New Health Care Demand - Research Report - March 2...pchutichetpong
M Capital Group (“MCG”) predicts that with, against, despite, and even without the global pandemic, the medical technology (MedTech) industry shows signs of continuous healthy growth, driven by smaller, faster, and cheaper devices, growing demand for home-based applications, technological innovation, strategic acquisitions, investments, and SPAC listings. MCG predicts that this should reflects itself in annual growth of over 6%, well beyond 2028.
According to Chris Mouchabhani, Managing Partner at M Capital Group, “Despite all economic scenarios that one may consider, beyond overall economic shocks, medical technology should remain one of the most promising and robust sectors over the short to medium term and well beyond 2028.”
There is a movement towards home-based care for the elderly, next generation scanning and MRI devices, wearable technology, artificial intelligence incorporation, and online connectivity. Experts also see a focus on predictive, preventive, personalized, participatory, and precision medicine, with rising levels of integration of home care and technological innovation.
The average cost of treatment has been rising across the board, creating additional financial burdens to governments, healthcare providers and insurance companies. According to MCG, cost-per-inpatient-stay in the United States alone rose on average annually by over 13% between 2014 to 2021, leading MedTech to focus research efforts on optimized medical equipment at lower price points, whilst emphasizing portability and ease of use. Namely, 46% of the 1,008 medical technology companies in the 2021 MedTech Innovator (“MTI”) database are focusing on prevention, wellness, detection, or diagnosis, signaling a clear push for preventive care to also tackle costs.
In addition, there has also been a lasting impact on consumer and medical demand for home care, supported by the pandemic. Lockdowns, closure of care facilities, and healthcare systems subjected to capacity pressure, accelerated demand away from traditional inpatient care. Now, outpatient care solutions are driving industry production, with nearly 70% of recent diagnostics start-up companies producing products in areas such as ambulatory clinics, at-home care, and self-administered diagnostics.

CRISPR-Cas9, a revolutionary gene-editing tool, holds immense potential to reshape medicine, agriculture, and our understanding of life. But like any powerful tool, it comes with ethical considerations.
Unveiling CRISPR: This naturally occurring bacterial defense system (crRNA & Cas9 protein) fights viruses. Scientists repurposed it for precise gene editing (correction, deletion, insertion) by targeting specific DNA sequences.
The Promise: CRISPR offers exciting possibilities:
Gene Therapy: Correcting genetic diseases like cystic fibrosis.
Agriculture: Engineering crops resistant to pests and harsh environments.
Research: Studying gene function to unlock new knowledge.
The Peril: Ethical concerns demand attention:
Off-target Effects: Unintended DNA edits can have unforeseen consequences.
Eugenics: Misusing CRISPR for designer babies raises social and ethical questions.
Equity: High costs could limit access to this potentially life-saving technology.
The Path Forward: Responsible development is crucial:
International Collaboration: Clear guidelines are needed for research and human trials.
Public Education: Open discussions ensure informed decisions about CRISPR.
Prioritize Safety and Ethics: Safety and ethical principles must be paramount.
CRISPR offers a powerful tool for a better future, but responsible development and addressing ethical concerns are essential. By prioritizing safety, fostering open dialogue, and ensuring equitable access, we can harness CRISPR's power for the benefit of all. (2998 characters)

Modern AI for Drug Discovery
4. Source: c4xdiscovery.com

Drug is a small molecule that binds to a bio target (e.g., protein) and
modifies its functions to produce useful physiological or mental effects.
Drug discovery is the process through which potential new medicines
are identified. It involves a wide range of scientific disciplines,
including biology, chemistry and pharmacology (Nature, 2019).
Proteins are large biomolecules consisting of chains of
amino acid residues.
Drug-likeness:
Solubility in water and fat, e.g., measured by
LogP. Most drugs are admitted orally pass
through membrance.
Potency at the bio target target-specific
binding.
Ligand efficiency (low energy binding) and
lipophilic efficiency.
Small molecular weight affect diffusion
Rule of Five

6. The three basic questions
Given a molecule, is this drug? Aka properties/targets/effects prediction.
Drug-likeness
Targets it can modulate and how much
Its dynamics/kinetics/effects/metabolism if administered orally or via injection
Given a target, what are molecules?
If the list of molecules is given, pick the good one. If evaluation is expensive, need to search, e.g., using BO.
If no molecule is found, need to generate from scratch generative models + BO, or RL.
How does the drug-like space look like?
Given a molecular graph, what are the steps to make the molecule?
Synthetic tractability
Reaction planning, or retrosynthesis
