An Infrastructure to Mine Molecular Descriptors for Ligand Selection on Virtual Screening

Table 3

Evaluation metric results of the second set of data mining experiments for generating rules about the molecular descriptors. Columns 1 and 2 are the definition of the decision tree experiment characteristics. Columns 3–7 correspond to the resulted metrics for each performed experiment: accuracy, size, RMSE, MAE, and -measure, respectively.
