Abstract

Drug discovery is a challenging, expensive, and time-intensive process involving several critical stages to identify new drug for a particular disease. Among these stages, Lead Identification and Lead Optimization are especially vital. Due to the complexity and resource requirements of the drug development process, novel strategies are required to quickly and effectively determine the potential of compounds from extensive chemical libraries. This paper proposed a novel approach i.e., Advanced Integrated Machine Learning Compound Evaluation Framework (AIMLCEF) designed to evaluate compound potential and streamline the identification of promising drug candidates. The proposed model integrates advanced computational techniques, including molecular fingerprints, similarity metrics, and graph neural networks, to evaluate compound potential. By leveraging extensive data and advanced computational techniques, the model improves both the accuracy and speed of lead identification. This novel approach addresses the common challenges of traditional screening processes and facilitates more effective prioritization of high-potential compounds. By leveraging AIMLCEF, pharmaceutical companies can significantly expedite the identification of high-potential lead compounds from extensive chemical libraries, reducing both time and financial expenditures while enhancing the overall efficiency of drug discovery.
