About Othman Soufan Othman Soufan Ph.D., Computer Science artificial intelligence data mining bioinformatics cheminformatics toxicogenomics drug discovery Research Interests I’m a Ph.D. in Computer Science; currently focusing on developing drug discovery and biomedical applications through data mining and graph mining techniques. I excel in analyzing data, extracting unseen useful patterns and achieving a better informative decision-making process. The result of my work can be found in one filed patent and several peer-reviewed publications in international journals ranked top in the respective domain of specialty. I have a strong business background, both academic and empirical, derived from my education and family business. Being transparent Events Presented Events Nov 13 - Nov 19, 2016 Novel Data Mining Methods for Virtual Screening of Biological Active Chemical Compounds by Othman Soufan Othman Soufan, Ph.D., Computer Science Nov 16, 14:00 - 15:00 H2 B9 machine learning data mining Computational biology biomedical applications Chemical compounds visualization Abstract Drug discovery is a process that takes many years and hundreds of millions of dollars to reveal a con dent conclusion about a specific treatment. Part of this sophisticated process is based on preliminary investigations to suggest a set of chemical compounds as candidate drugs for the treatment. Computational resources have been playing a significant role in this part through a step known as virtual screening. From a data mining perspective, the availability of rich data resources is key in training prediction models. Yet, the difficulties imposed by big expansion in data and its
