1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Artificial intelligence (AI) tools find increasing application in drug discovery supporting every stage of the Design-Make-Test-Analyse (DMTA) cycle. The main focus of this chapter is the application in molecular generation with the aid of deep neural networks (DNN). We present a historical overview of the main advances in the field. We analyze the concepts of distribution and goal-directed learning and then highlight some of the recent applications of generative models in drug design with a focus into research work from the biopharmaceutical industry. We present in some more detail REINVENT which is an open-source software developed within our group in AstraZeneca and the main platform for AI molecular design support for a number of medicinal chemistry projects in the company and we also demonstrate some of our work in library design. Finally, we present some of the main challenges in the application of AI in Drug Discovery and different approaches to respond to these challenges which define areas for current and future work.
