Slide presentation for 2012 AGM for The Friends of Kinneil Charity in central Scotland - see www.kinneil.org.uk/friends. Includes presentations by Chair and Treasurer.
The document discusses an automated system called the Discovery Bus that can derive quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) models independently without user input. It explores many possible model combinations and applies various machine learning techniques and feature selection filters to build over 1,500 models. It is designed to automatically apply new data and methods. The system demonstrates models generated by the Discovery Bus that perform as well as those made by experts. Future work aims to expand the system with more data, descriptors, learning methods and other enhancements.
The document discusses several topics related to quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) modeling including:
1) A chemical reaction converting pyrylium to pyridinium salt.
2) Hansch analysis, which is not a linear free energy relationship, and includes terms for various molecular properties.
3) A diagram depicting the workflow for QSAR modeling which includes steps for calculating descriptors, filtering features, building models, and making predictions.
4) The concept of a "Meta QSAR" system for automating decision making in QSAR modeling through various software agents.
Automating Drug Design Nov 13th 2009 97David Leahy
The document discusses automating drug design through the use of artificial intelligence agents. It describes a system called the Discovery Bus that uses various AI agents like the QSAR Agent and MOO Agent to perform tasks involved in drug design like calculating descriptors, building models, filtering features, and optimizing leads independently without human intervention. The goal is to significantly improve productivity in drug discovery by removing the need for direct human effort at each step of the process.
InkSpot Science presentation at Open Science MeetingDavid Leahy
InkSpot Science is an on-demand computing platform that provides scientists with hosting, content management, data visualization, and collaboration tools as an alternative to desktop applications. It offers secure hosting of various data types including tables, graphs, equations, blogs and wikis. Users can design workflows, access specialized services for tasks like drug discovery, and take advantage of social networking features to share information.
Jack Russell terriers originated in Great Britain and are very energetic dogs that love activities like running, walking, playing fetch, and tug of war. They are expressive dogs that seem to think they are bigger than they are but still love people and other animals.
PBPK simulation as an alternative to animal testingDavid Leahy
Generic physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) models for rats and humans were developed using in vitro absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion (ADME) data. The models accurately predicted plasma concentrations of drugs in independent test sets, performing equally to or better than traditional allometric scaling methods. However, PBPK models have advantages over scaling in accounting for differences in drug chemistry, metabolism, and administration routes between species.
This document discusses how the Discovery Bus manages the QSAR process by applying different modelling approaches and algorithms to generate many model paths from data in an automated way. It handles tasks like selecting descriptors, splitting data, building models using methods like linear regression and neural networks, and adding results to a database. This allows industrial-scale QSAR to be performed by generating over 750,000 models from 10,000 datasets in 3 weeks using cloud computing resources. The goal of the Discovery Bus is to significantly improve drug discovery productivity by performing the work independently without human involvement.
Most Drug Discovery Scientists could be replaced by Software SystemsDavid Leahy
The document discusses how drug discovery scientists could potentially be replaced by software systems in the future. It argues that drug discovery has become a mature field with established methodologies and best practices. It is presented as a multi-objective optimization problem that considers many potential drug targets, compounds, and goals. The document proposes that human understanding is no longer essential in drug discovery and that systems could select which compound to synthesize next through computational models and rules. It then provides examples of how expert strategies, workflows, and a "panel of experts" approach could be modeled computationally through packages, rules, and optimization engines to enable more automated "declarative drug design".
Artificial intelligence (AI) has the potential to transform drug discovery through the use of semantic networks to represent biomedical knowledge as facts and infer new insights, probabilistic rules to evaluate beliefs about candidate drugs, and optimization and simulation techniques to iteratively improve outcomes. By continuously learning from diverse sources of data, AI systems could automate and enhance the processes of target identification, compound screening and testing in ways that accelerate research and development compared to traditional analytical tools.

El Puerto de Algeciras continúa un año más como el más eficiente del continente europeo y vuelve a situarse en el “top ten” mundial, según el informe The Container Port Performance Index 2023 (CPPI), elaborado por el Banco Mundial y la consultora S&P Global.
El informe CPPI utiliza dos enfoques metodológicos diferentes para calcular la clasificación del índice: uno administrativo o técnico y otro estadístico, basado en análisis factorial (FA). Según los autores, esta dualidad pretende asegurar una clasificación que refleje con precisión el rendimiento real del puerto, a la vez que sea estadísticamente sólida. En esta edición del informe CPPI 2023, se han empleado los mismos enfoques metodológicos y se ha aplicado un método de agregación de clasificaciones para combinar los resultados de ambos enfoques y obtener una clasificación agregada.
