融合化学结构与药理知识,提升药物相互作用预测准确率
A Hybrid Computational Intelligence Framework with Metaheuristic Optimization for Drug-Drug Interaction Prediction
- 用分子嵌入+临床评分规则融合化学特征与药理知识
- 在DrugBank数据上达AUC 0.911,PR-AUC 0.867
- 模型可解释性强,适合临床决策支持场景
药物-药物相互作用(DDIs)是导致可预防不良事件的主要原因,常使治疗复杂化并增加医疗成本。了解哪些药物不相互作用同样关键,有助于实现更安全的处方和更好患者结局。本研究提出一种可解释且高效的混合计算智能框架,将现代机器学习与领域知识结合以提升DDI预测性能。方法融合两种互补的分子嵌入:捕捉片段级结构模式的Mol2Vec,以及学习上下文化学特征的SMILES-BERT;同时引入无泄露的规则型临床评分(RBScore),注入药理学知识而不依赖交互标签。随后使用一种新型三阶段元启发式优化策略(RSmpl-ACO-PSO)对轻量级神经分类器进行优化,平衡全局探索与局部精炼,确保稳定表现。在真实世界数据集上的实验表明,该模型在DrugBank上取得0.911的ROC-AUC与0.867的PR-AUC,且在临床相关的2型糖尿病队列中具有良好泛化能力。研究进一步揭示了嵌入融合、RBScore及优化器对精度与鲁棒性的贡献。结果共同展示了一条构建可靠、可解释、计算高效模型的实用路径,可支持更安全的药物治疗与临床决策。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Drug-drug interactions (DDIs) are a leading cause of preventable adverse events, often complicating treatment and increasing healthcare costs. At the same time, knowing which drugs do not interact is equally important, as such knowledge supports safer prescriptions and better patient outcomes. In this study, we propose an interpretable and efficient framework that blends modern machine learning with domain knowledge to improve DDI prediction. Our approach combines two complementary molecular embeddings - Mol2Vec, which captures fragment-level structural patterns, and SMILES-BERT, which learns contextual chemical features - together with a leakage-free, rule-based clinical score (RBScore) that injects pharmacological knowledge without relying on interaction labels. A lightweight neural classifier is then optimized using a novel three-stage metaheuristic strategy (RSmpl-ACO-PSO), which balances global exploration and local refinement for stable performance. Experiments on real-world datasets demonstrate that the model achieves high predictive accuracy (ROC-AUC 0.911, PR-AUC 0.867 on DrugBank) and generalizes well to a clinically relevant Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus cohort. Beyond raw performance, studies show how embedding fusion, RBScore, and the optimizer each contribute to precision and robustness. Together, these results highlight a practical pathway for building reliable, interpretable, and computationally efficient models that can support safer drug therapies and clinical decision-making.
