a

Num. models, number of models with CCRtrain and CCRtest ≥ 0.70

b

N(1), number of actives

c

N(0), number of inactives

d

CCRevs, correct classification rate of the consensus models using the external validation set

e

Coverage: percentage of predicted compounds, and coverage = % of the external set compounds predicted by the models

f

A, kNN-Dragon

g

B, kNN-Dragon-NVS where kNN model was generated using all 387 Dragon descriptors with no variable selection and 1 nearest neighbor (NN)

h

C, kNN-Dragon-MFD where the kNN model was generated with top 20 most frequent Dragon descriptors and 1NN

i

D, kNN-Dragon-DWD where the kNN model was generated with top 20 highly weighted Dragon descriptors by DWD and 1 NN.
