We Need Better Benchmarks for Machine Learning in Drug Discovery

Practical Cheminformatics

Most pharmaceutical compounds tend to have solubilities somewhere between 1 and 500 µM. Clintox – This dataset consists of 1483 SMILES strings and two binary labels indicating whether a molecule is an FDA-approved drug and whether a toxicity outcome has been reported. Values less than 1µM are often reported as “ 500µM”.
