论文摘要
近年来,科学论文的数量有所增加,这些论文表明在药物发现中使用保形预测。我们认为,在二进制环境中应用的某些形式的保形预测卷入了陷阱,一见钟情并不明显,并且重要的是要向科学界介绍它们。在本文中,我们首先介绍了保形预测的一般理论,并遵循了当前在药物发现研究中占主导地位的版本的解释。最后,我们为二进制分类设置中的批判性评估提供了案例。
In recent years there has been an increase in the number of scientific papers that suggest using conformal predictions in drug discovery. We consider that some versions of conformal predictions applied in binary settings are embroiled in pitfalls, not obvious at first sight, and that it is important to inform the scientific community about them. In the paper we first introduce the general theory of conformal predictions and follow with an explanation of the versions currently dominant in drug discovery research today. Finally, we provide cases for their critical assessment in binary classification settings.
