Drug Embeddings

Drug embeddings represent molecules as numerical vectors, enabling machine learning models to analyze and predict their properties and interactions. Current research focuses on developing sophisticated embedding methods, including those leveraging graph neural networks and variational autoencoders, to capture both chemical structure and biological activity, often incorporating multimodal data like text and patient health information. These advancements are improving drug discovery and repurposing efforts, particularly in predicting drug synergy, adverse drug reactions, and personalized medicine recommendations, by facilitating more accurate and efficient analyses of large datasets. The resulting improved models are leading to more effective and safer drug development strategies.
