Since drug response prediction in vitro is extremely expensive, time-consuming and virtually impossible, and because there are so many cell lines and drug data, computational methods are needed.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>MinDrug is a method for predicting anti-cancer drug response which try to identify the best subset of drugs that are the most similar to other drugs. MinDrug predicts the anti-cancer drug response on a new cell line using information from drugs in this subset and their connections to other drugs. MinDrug employs a heuristic star algorithm to identify an optimal subset of drugs and a regression technique known as Elastic-Net approaches to predict anti-cancer drug response in a new cell line. To test MinDrug, we use both statistical and biological methods to assess the selected drugs. MinDrug is also compared to four state-of-the-art approaches using various k-fold cross-validations on two large public datasets: GDSC and CCLE. MinDrug outperforms the other approaches in terms of precision, robustness and speed. Furthermore, we compare the evaluation results of all the approaches with an external dataset with a statistical distribution that is not exactly the same as the training data. The results show that MinDrug continues to outperform the other approaches.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Availability and implementation<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>MinDrug\u2019s source code can be found at https:\/\/github.com\/yassaee\/MinDrug.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Supplementary information<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>Supplementary data are available at Bioinformatics online.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1093\/bioinformatics\/btab466","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,6,22]],"date-time":"2021-06-22T11:10:20Z","timestamp":1624360220000},"page":"4509-4516","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":14,"title":["Predicting anti-cancer drug response by finding optimal subset of drugs"],"prefix":"10.1093","volume":"37","author":[{"given":"Fatemeh","family":"Yassaee Meybodi","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Computer and Data Sciences, Faculty of Mathematical Sciences, Shahid Beheshti University , 1983969411 Tehran, Iran"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-8913-3904","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Changiz","family":"Eslahchi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Computer and Data Sciences, Faculty of Mathematical Sciences, Shahid Beheshti University , 1983969411 Tehran, Iran"},{"name":"School of Biological Sciences, Institute for Research in Fundamental Sciences (IPM) , 193955746 Tehran, Iran"}]}],"member":"286","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,6,25]]},"reference":[{"key":"2023061310470299800_btab466-B1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"i413","DOI":"10.1093\/bioinformatics\/btw449","article-title":"Tandem: a two-stage approach to maximize interpretability of drug response models based on multiple molecular data types","volume":"32","author":"Aben","year":"2016","journal-title":"Bioinformatics"},{"key":"2023061310470299800_btab466-B2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"i359","DOI":"10.1093\/bioinformatics\/btx266","article-title":"T.
