Vector Representations

Inspired by natural language processing techniques we here introduce Mol2vec which is an unsupervised machine learning approach to learn vector representations of molecular substructures. Similarly, to the Word2vec models where vectors of closely related words are in close proximity in the vector space, Mol2vec learns vector representations of molecular substructures that are pointing in similar directions for chemically related substructures. Compounds can finally be encoded as vectors by summing up vectors of the individual substructures and, for instance, feed into supervised machine learning approaches to predict compound properties. The underlying substructure vector embeddings are obtained by training an unsupervised machine learning approach on a so-called corpus of compounds that consists of all available chemical matter. The resulting Mol2vec model is pre-trained once, yields dense vector representations and overcomes drawbacks of common compound feature representations such as sparseness and bit collisions. The prediction capabilities are demonstrated on several compound property and bioactivity data sets and compared with results obtained for Morgan fingerprints as reference compound representation. Mol2vec can be easily combined with ProtVec, which employs the same Word2vec concept on protein sequences, resulting in a proteochemometric approach that is alignment independent and can be thus also easily used for proteins with low sequence similarities.

Controversial Topic

Someone's understanding and stance on a particular controversial topic can be influenced by daily news or articles he consume everyday. Unfortunately, readers usually do not realize that they are reading controversial articles. In this paper, we address the problem of automatically detecting controversial article from citizen journalism media. To solve the problem, we employ a supervised machine learning approach with several hand-crafted features that exploits linguistic information, meta-data of an article, structural information in the commentary section, and sentiment expressed inside the body of an article. The experimental results shows that our proposed method manages to perform the addressed task effectively. The best performance so far is achieved when we use all proposed feature with Logistic Regression as our model (82.89\% in terms of accuracy). Moreover, we found that information from commentary section (structural features) contributes most to the classification task.
