    Abstract: QSAR analysis of a set of previously synthesized azole derivatives tested for growth inhibitory activity against Candida albicans was performed by using Associative Neural Network. To overcome the problem of overfitting due to descriptor selection, 5-fold cross-validation with variable selection in each step of the analysis was used. The predictive... Show More
