Multi-target QSPR assemble of a Complex Network for the distribution of chemicals to biphasic systems and biological tissues

2008

Abstract Chemometrics, that based prediction on the probability of chemical distribution to different systems, is highly important for physicochemical, environmental, and life sciences. However, the amount of information is huge and difficult to analyze. A multi-system partition Complex Network (MSP-CN) may be very useful in this sense. We define MSP-CNs as large graphs composed by nodes (chemicals) interconnected by arcs if a pair of chemicals have similar partition in a given system. Experimental quantification of partition in many systems is expensive, so we can use a Quantitative Structure–Partition Relationship (QSPR) model. Unfortunately, with classic QSPR we need to use one model for…
