QSAR study of α1β4 integrin inhibitors by GA-MLR and GA-SVM methods

In this work, the linear (multiple linear regressions) and nonlinear (support vector machine) methods are used to develop quantitative structure–activity relationship models in order to predict the activities of some α1β4 integrin inhibitors. A dataset that consisted of 51 molecules was divided into the training and test subsets. Stepwise and genetic algorithm methods have been employed for selection of relevant descriptors. Comparison of the obtained results indicated the superiority of the genetic algorithm over the stepwise method for feature selection. The models were validated using the cross-validation, external test set, and Y- randomization test. Comparison of the results showed that SVM was very accurate approach in predicting the activities of α1β4 integrin inhibitors. The predicted results of this study can provide better insights to design new α1β4 integrin inhibitors.
