| Sumario: | A chemically explainable machine learning model was constructed with a small dataset to quantitatively predict the singlet-oxygen-scavenging ability. In this model, ensemble learning based on decision trees resulted in high accuracy. For explanatory variables, molecular descriptors by computational chemistry and Morgan fingerprints were used for achieving high accuracy and simple prediction. The singlet-oxygen-scavenging mechanism was explained by the feature importance obtained from machine learning outputs. The results are consistent with conventional chemical knowledge. The use of machine learning and reduction in the number of measurements for screening high-antioxidant-capacity compounds can considerably improve prediction accuracy and efficiency. |
