Exploring the ability of machine learning-based virtual screening models to identify the functional groups responsible for binding

Abstract Many recently proposed structure-based virtual screening models appear to be able to accurately distinguish high affinity binders from non-binders. However, several recent studies have shown that they often do so by exploiting ligand-specific biases in the dataset, rather than identifying f...
