Prediction and Chemical Interpretation of Singlet-Oxygen-Scavenging Activity of Small Molecule Compounds by Using Machine Learning

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...
