Exploring Quantitative Structure-Activity Relationships (QSARs) of Non-Tri cyclic Cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) Inhibitors by MLR and PC-ANN
Journal Title: JOURNAL OF ADVANCES IN CHEMISTRY - Year 2015, Vol 11, Issue 1
Abstract
Quantitative structure–activity relationship study using principal component artificial neural network (PC-ANN) methodology was conducted to predict the inhibitory activities expressed as pIC50 of 73 non-tri cyclic cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) inhibitors. The results obtained by MLR shows that the best two models are close to each other with regression coefficient of 0.85. These optimal models were further analyzed by PC-ANN and the best model obtained was with regression coefficient of 0.823 for the test set. The lowest prediction sum of squares  (PRESS) value obtained for the prediction set is 4.727 which accounts for predictability of the model. Artificial neural networks provide improved models for heterogeneous data sets without splitting them into families. Both the external and cross-validation methods are used to validate the performances of the resulting models. Randomization test is employed to check the suitability of the models.

Computing the Omega polynomial of an infinite family of the linear parallelogram P(n,m)
Let G=(V,E) be a molecular graph, where V(G) is a non-empty set of vertices and E(G) is a set of edges. The Omega polynomial Ω(G,x) was introduced by Diudea in 2006 and this defined as  where m(G,c) the number of qoc s...
Corrosion Behaviour of Metals in Artificial Tear Solution
Human tear comes in contact with a number of instruments during operation in the eyes. This results in a variety of undesirable effects such as corrosion and malfunction. Corrosion behaviour of five metals, namely, m...
