Speaker
Charles Hoyt, Fraunhofer Institute for Algorithms and Scientific Computing in Sankt Augustin, Germany:
Applications of Biomedical Knowledge Graphs in Drug Discovery
See also: Applications of Knowledge Graphs in Drug Discovery
Abstract:
Drug discovery campaigns are often successful because of a coherence between the identification of key proteins in a disease and their subsequent targeting for modulation. Network representation learning will be presented as a schema-free framework for integrating and jointly modeling several biological relationships from heterogeneous data types like chemical activities, chemical similarity, drugs’ side effects, drugs’ indications, and disease-associated proteins. It will be shown how link prediction tasks in an integrative network are isomorphic to several key tasks in drug discovery such as proteochemometrics, target prioritization, side effect prediction, and drug repositioning. Finally, it will be shown how the underlying network can be directly used to identify and rank potential mechanisms of action for drug repositioning candidates.
