Abstract:
:Many commercially available software programs claim similar efficiency and accuracy as variable selection tools. Genetic algorithms are commonly used variable selection methods where most relevant variables can be differentiated from 'less important' variables using evolutionary computing techniques. However, different vendors offer several algorithms, and the puzzling question is: which one is the appropriate method of choice? In this study, several genetic algorithm tools (e.g. GFA from Cerius2, QuaSAR-Evolution from MOE and Partek's genetic algorithm) were compared. Stepwise multiple linear regression models were generated using the most relevant variables identified by the above genetic algorithms. This procedure led to the successful generation of Quantitative Structure activity Relationship (QSAR) models for (a) proprietary datasets and (b) the Selwood dataset.
