The inhibition of Lysine-Specific Histone Demethylase 1 (LSD1) is a promising strategy for cancer treatment and targeting epigenetic mechanisms. This paper introduces a Probabilistic Conditional Generative Adversarial Network (Prob-cGAN), designed to predict the activity of LSD1 inhibitors. The Prob-cGAN was evaluated against state-of-the-art models using the ChEMBL database, demonstrating superior performance. Specifically, it achieved a top-1 R 2 of 0.739, significantly outperforming the Smiles-Transformer model at 0.591 and the baseline cGAN at 0.488. Furthermore, it recorded a lower RM SE of 0.562, compared to 0.708 and 0.791 for the Smiles-Transformer and cGAN models respectively. These results highlight the potential of Prob-cGAN to enhance drug design and advance our understanding of complex biological systems through machine learning and bioinformatics.
The development of convective weather avoidance algorithm is crucial for aviation operations and it is also a key objective of the next generation air traffic management system. This paper proposes a novel network architecture that embeds convolutional layers into long short-time memory (LSTM) cells to predict the trajectory, based on the convective weather condition along the flight plan before the aircraft takeoff. The data used in the experiments are history flight track data, the last on-file flight plan, and the time-dependent convective weather map. The history flight data are taken from NASA Sherlock database and the weather data used in this paper is the Echo Top (ET) convective weather product from Corridor Integrated Weather System (CIWS). The experiment is conducted using three months history data over the period from Nov 1, 2018 through Feb 5, 2019 with the flights from John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK) to Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) but the methodology can be applied to the flights between any arbitrary two airports. Interpolation is performed on flight plans and real history tracks to fix the fold number of LSTM cell and also reduce computation complexity. The training loss is defined as the standard Mean Squared Error (MSE) of the predicted tracks and the real history tracks. Adam optimizer is used for backpropagation. Learning from the real historical flight data, the out-of-sample test shows that 47.0\% of the predicted flight tracks are able to reduce the deviation compared to the last on-file flight plan. The overall variance is reduced by 12.3\%.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
