Evaluating the ability of CASE, an artificial intelligence structure-activity relational system, to predict structural alerts for genotoxicity

Mutagenesis. 1990 Nov;5(6):525-7. doi: 10.1093/mutage/5.6.525.

Abstract

CASE, a structure-activity relational system, correctly predicts the presence of structural alerts in 36 of 39 molecules (sensitivity, 1.00; specificity, 0.83; concordance, 92%). The misclassification of two of the molecules is due to either ambiguous or previously unenunciated rules for defining structural alerts.
