The author reviews an approach, proposed recently by Mahé, Ralaivola, Stoven, and Vert (2006), for ligand-based virtual screening with support vector machines using a kernel based on the 3D structure of the molecules. The kernel detects putative 3-point pharmacophores, and generalizes previous approaches based on 3-point pharmacophore fingerprints. It overcomes the categorization issue associated with the discretization step usually required for the construction of fingerprints, and leads to promising results on several benchmark datasets.
