Abstract
As cancer cases are looming large worldwide, the applications of data science and machine learning in these fields possess a greater scope especially when there is the availability of data containing the drug synergy score of different combinations. Predictive analytics holds the ability to generate a more efficient and accurate drug synergy score, that describes the synergies between interactions of two drugs. Various machine learning techniques have been designed so far for the prediction of drug synergy scores. However, parameter tuning is the primary issue for these techniques. To overcome this issue, an efficient and robust Evolutionary based Neural Network Structure using Adaptive Lévy technique has been proposed. The existing machine learning techniques and this evolutionary-based technique are tested on the drug dataset to predict synergy score. As supported by comparative analysis, the findings of the proposed research outperform all the known techniques in terms of parameters like accuracy, coefficient of correlation, and RMSE.
