EFI: A Toolbox for Feature Importance Fusion and Interpretation in Python

1 code implementation8 Aug 2022 Aayush Kumar, Jimiama Mafeni Mase, Divish Rengasamy, Benjamin Rothwell, Mercedes Torres Torres, David A. Winkler, Grazziela P. Figueredo

This paper presents an open-source Python toolbox called Ensemble Feature Importance (EFI) to provide machine learning (ML) researchers, domain experts, and decision makers with robust and accurate feature importance quantification and more reliable mechanistic interpretation of feature importance for prediction problems using fuzzy sets.

Mechanistic Interpretation of Machine Learning Inference: A Fuzzy Feature Importance Fusion Approach

no code implementations22 Oct 2021 Divish Rengasamy, Jimiama M. Mase, Mercedes Torres Torres, Benjamin Rothwell, David A. Winkler, Grazziela P. Figueredo

A possible solution to improve the reliability of explanations is to combine results from multiple feature importance quantifiers from different machine learning approaches coupled with re-sampling.

Computationally repurposed drugs and natural products against RNA dependent RNA polymerase as potential COVID-19 therapies

no code implementations29 Nov 2020 Sakshi Piplani, Puneet Singh, David A. Winkler, Nikolai Petrovsky

For fast development of COVID-19, it is only feasible to use drugs (off label use) or approved natural products that are already registered or been assessed for safety in previous human trials.

Computational screening of repurposed drugs and natural products against SARS-Cov-2 main protease (Mpro) as potential COVID-19 therapies

no code implementations1 Sep 2020 Sakshi Piplani, Puneet Singh, Nikolai Petrovsky, David A. Winkler

We show how the resulting shortlist of candidates with strongest binding affinities is highly enriched in compounds that have been independently identified as potential antivirals against COVID-19.

In silico comparison of spike protein-ACE2 binding affinities across species; significance for the possible origin of the SARS-CoV-2 virus

no code implementations13 May 2020 Sakshi Piplani, Puneet Kumar Singh, David A. Winkler, Nikolai Petrovsky

The devastating impact of the COVID-19 pandemic caused by SARS coronavirus 2 (SARS CoV 2) has raised important questions about viral origin, mechanisms of zoonotic transfer to humans, whether companion or commercial animals can act as reservoirs for infection, and why there are large variations in SARS-CoV-2 susceptibilities across animal species.
