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

Table 1

Example of data mining input file format. Column 1 represents the ligand identification (not used on data mining experiments). Columns MwT, , HBD, HBA, and so forth correspond to the molecular descriptors for each ligand, our predictive attributes. The last column is the target attribute FEB.
