Objective The objective of this study is to propose a novel in-silico method called Hemolytic-Pred for identifying hemolytic proteins based on their sequences, using statistical moment-based features, along with position-relative and frequency-relative information. Methods Primary sequences were transformed into feature vectors using statistical and position-relative moment-based features. Varying machine learning algorithms were employed for classification. Computational models were rigorously evaluated using four different validation. The Hemolytic-Pred webserver is available for further analysis at http://ec2-54-160-229-10.compute-1.amazonaws.com/ . Results XGBoost outperformed the other six classifiers with an accuracy value of 0.99, 0.98, 0.97, and 0.98 for self-consistency test, 10-fold cross-validation, Jackknife test, and independent set test, respectively. The proposed method with the XGBoost classifier is a workable and robust solution for predicting hemolytic proteins efficiently and accurately. Conclusions The proposed method of Hemolytic-Pred with XGBoost classifier is a reliable tool for the timely identification of hemolytic cells and diagnosis of various related severe disorders. The application of Hemolytic-Pred can yield profound benefits in the medical field.
