                    Abstract: 
                                    The Quantitative Structure-Activity Relationship (QSAR) models are a very useful tool in the design of new chemical compounds. The QSAR methods are based on the assumption that the activity of a certain chemical compound is related to its structure. Two types of QSAR analysis are summarized in this review: Linear Regression model (LR) and Linear Discriminant Analysis model (LDA).

                Thank you for your participation. What are on your opinion the advantages/disadvantages of QSAR/QSPR techniques?
What are possible applications to Drug Discovery, Nanotechnology, and Fuel Industry?

                    Publication in QSAR
                
            
                Very interesting analysis of the trends in publication with 'QSAR' as keyword. 
Do you think that this behavior will continue?

                    QSAR review
                
            
                Very interesting review on two of the methods used to find QSAR which I have used myself. I’d like to know your opinion on other QSAR methods, namely random decision forests and artificial neural networks. Thank you.
