Automated identification of protein-ligand interaction features using Inductive Logic Programming: a hexose binding case study

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>There is a need for automated methods to learn general features of the interactions of a ligand class with its diverse set of protein receptors. An appropriate machine learning approach is Inductive Logic Programming (ILP), which aut...
