| Summary: | We describe the ‘Structure-Activity Relationship (SAR) Matrix’ (SARM) methodology that is based upon a special two-step application of the matched molecular pair (MMP) formalism. The SARM method has originally been designed for the extraction, organization, and visualization of compound series and associated SAR information from compound data sets. It has been further developed and adapted for other applications including compound design, activity prediction, library extension, and the navigation of multi-target activity spaces. The SARM approach and its extensions are presented here in context to introduce different types of applications and provide an example for the evolution of a computational methodology in pharmaceutical research.
