Narrowing the gap between machine learning scoring functions and free energy perturbation using augmented data by Valsson, Í, Warren, MT, Deane, CM, Magarkar, A, Morris, GM, Biggin, PC

“…However, current models lack robust evaluation and fail on tasks encountered in (hit-to-) lead optimisation, such as ranking the binding affinity of a congeneric series of ligands, thereby limiting their application in drug discovery. Here, we address these issues by first introducing a novel attention-based graph neural network model called AEV-PLIG (atomic environment vector–protein ligand interaction graph). …”
