Poster summary

In structure-based drug design, scoring functions are widely used for fast evaluation of protein-ligand interactions. Regardless of their technical difference, scoring functions all need data sets combining protein-ligand complex structures and binding affinity data for parameterization and validation. However, data sets of this kind used to be rather limited in terms of size and quality. On the other hand, standard metrics for evaluating scoring function used to be ambiguous, which do not directly reflect the genuine quality of scoring functions.
