With gene expression profiles and other omics data being available for over 1000 cancer cell lines and tissues, different machine learning approaches have been applied to drug response prediction. These methods appear in a body of literature and have been evaluated on different datasets with only one or two accuracy metrics. We systematically assessed 17 representative methods for drug response prediction on four large public datasets in nine metrics. In this talk, I will discuss a couple of methods that are among the best methods. I will also discuss the lessons obtained from this benchmarking study. | | | |
