Abstract
An embodiment of the invention receives input including a list of drugs, drug characteristics of each drug, and known drug-disease associations including a disease and a drug having a threshold efficacy for treating the disease. For each drug in the list of drugs, a processor predicts whether the drug meets a threshold efficacy for treating a first disease based on the drug characteristics and the drug-disease associations. For each drug in the list of drugs, the processor predicts whether the drug meets a threshold efficacy for treating a second disease based on the drug characteristics and the predicting of whether the drug meets the threshold efficacy for treating the first disease. Output is generated output based on the predictions, the output including an identified drug-disease association, an identified disease-disease association, an identified chemical fingerprint for the first disease, and an identified chemical fingerprint for the second disease.
