SSF-DDI: a deep learning method utilizing drug sequence and substructure features for drug-drug interaction prediction

BACKGROUND

Drug-drug interactions (DDI) are prevalent in combination therapy, necessitating the importance of identifying and predicting potential DDI. While various artificial intelligence methods can predict and identify potential DDI, they often overlook the sequence information of drug molecules and fail to comprehensively consider the contribution of molecular substructures to DDI.

RESULTS

In this paper, we proposed a novel model for DDI prediction based on sequence and substructure features (SSF-DDI) to address these issues. Our model integrates drug sequence features and structural features from the drug molecule graph, providing enhanced information for DDI prediction and enabling a more comprehensive and accurate representation of drug molecules.

CONCLUSION

The results of experiments and case studies have demonstrated that SSF-DDI significantly outperforms state-of-the-art DDI prediction models across multiple real datasets and settings. SSF-DDI performs better in predicting DDI involving unknown drugs, resulting in a 5.67% improvement in accuracy compared to state-of-the-art methods.
