Comparison of Prediction Accuracies if Any of the Top 3 Predicted Solvents Match the Database Entrya
reaction | kNN top 3 allowed | NN top 3 allowed | worst case scenario |
---|---|---|---|
Friedel–Crafts | 92.8 | 89.0 | 62.3 |
Aldol addition | 94.5 | 92.1 | 71.5 |
Claisen condensation | 98.0 | 98.7 | 94.5 |
Diels–Alder | 93.9 | 93.5 | 80.5 |
Wittig | 91.3 | 91.3 | 90.8 |
The worst case scenario is always predicting the 3 most common solvents from the training data. Values are in %.
