The OECD has proposed five principles for validation of QSAR models used for regulatory purposes. Here we present a case study investigating how these principles can be applied to models based on Kohonen and counter propagation neural networks. The study is based on a counter propagation network model that has been built using toxicity data in fish fathead minnow for 541 compounds. The study demonstrates that most, if not all, of the OECD criteriamay be met when modeling using this neural network approach.

Abstract

The OECD has proposed five principles for validation of QSAR models used for regulatory purposes. Here we present a case study investigating how these principles can be applied to models based on Kohonen and counter propagation neural networks. The study is based on a counter propagation network model that has been built using toxicity data in fish fathead minnow for 541 compounds. The study demonstrates that most, if not all, of the OECD criteriamay be met when modeling using this neural network approach.
