四、学术成果
(一)代表性项目
1. 用之于小分子配体进行多目标优化“逆向药物设计”(RDD)系统。RDD主要融合了深度学习、蒙特卡洛模拟及支持向量机(SVM)等技术——能够直接生成同时具备理想药效与ADMET特性的化合物。
2. 20个预测ADMET性质的高质量机器学习模型,其构建基于高质量的定量高通量筛选(qHTS)数据及体内实验数据。
3. 分子诊断与设计软件系统,该系统不仅能够对数百万种化合物的ADMET性质进行预测,还能支持新型化合物的优化与设计。
4. 设计并构建了四个大型的LIMS应用系统,专门用于数据分析、存储与检索。首个系统专用于定量高通量筛选数据,目前已成为NIH(美国国立卫生研究院)的关键基础设施。第二个系统专用于DMPK(药物代谢动力学)数据,目前正在NIH处于常态化且活跃的使用状态。第三个系统专用于RNA测序(RNA-Seq)数据,目前同样在NIH处于常态化且活跃的使用状态。第四个系统专用于药物组合数据,该系统未来有望应用于复方药物的研究。
5. “随机成本”(Random Cost)的新型全局优化算法,并成功将其应用于解决真菌基因组计划中的主要物理图谱构建难题。在该算法问世之前,学界公认的真正意义上的全局优化算法仅有“模拟退火”(Simulated Annealing)一种。相较而言,模拟退火算法更适用于处理以浮点数形式描述的问题,而“随机成本”算法则更适用于处理以整数形式描述的问题.
6. 用于对蛋白质折叠力场或蛋白质诱饵结构进行测试与评估的方法学。提出利用紧凑且呈类天然构象的非天然结构作为“诱饵结构”来检验力场。
