报告题目: Large-scale Compound Activity Prediction
报告时间:12月10日(星期四)上午 10:00
报告地点:浙江大学玉泉校区智能系统与控制研究所304会议室
 

Abstract:
In this talk, I will discuss an on-going European Union funded multi-million pound project. The main objective of the project is to develop machine learning algorithms and implementations to enable the use of upcoming exascale supercomputers to solve very large scale complex machine learning problems. Machine learning is the discovery of useful information and building of predictive models from empirical data. The driving use-case is the prediction of small molecule compound activity in biological assays in pharmaceutical research.  The basic ideas of conformal predictors and initial experimental results will be presented.
