  • Patent number: 7194359
    Abstract: Embodiments of the invention provide methods for evaluating the accuracy of a molecular model properties model (or predictions generated using a molecular properties model). The accuracy of a molecular properties model may be evaluated using three general approaches, (i) by using the same data set to both train the model and to estimate the accuracy of the model, (ii) by using distinct data sets to train and subsequently test a model, and (iii) by using multiple models (or sets of predictions).

  • Patent number: 7117186
    Abstract: A general automated method for synthesizing the design of both the topology and parameter values for controllers is described. The automated method automatically makes decisions concerning the total number of signal processing blocks to be employed in the controller, the type of each signal processing block, the topological interconnections between the signal processing blocks, the values of all parameters for the signal processing blocks, and the existence, if any, of internal feedback between the signal processing blocks within the controller. The general automated method can simultaneously optimize prespecified performance metrics (such as minimizing the time required to bring the plant outputs to the desired values as measured by the integral of the time-weighted absolute error or the integral of the squared error), satisfy time-domain constraints (such as overshoot, disturbance rejection, limits on control variables, and limits on state variables), and satisfy frequency domain constraints (bandwidth).

  • Publication number: 20050278124
    Abstract: Embodiments of the invention provide methods, systems, and articles of manufacture for modeling molecular properties based on information obtained from sources other than direct empirical measurements of the properties. Embodiments of the invention use “virtual data” related to molecular properties to train a molecular properties model. Virtual data about a molecule may include real-valued data (e.g. measurement values falling along a continuous range) or a positive or negative assertion about whether a molecule exhibits a property of interest. Virtual data may be generated using a variety of techniques and may be further characterized by confidence in the accuracy of the virtual data. In addition to virtual data, embodiments of the invention may use “virtual molecules” paired with “virtual data” to train a molecular properties model. The virtual molecules may themselves be generated in a variety of ways.
