NCI1

Introduced in Comparison of descriptor spaces for chemical compound retrieval and classification1 Jan 2006 archive 2025-07-28

The NCI1 dataset comes from the cheminformatics domain, where each input graph is used as representation of a chemical compound: each vertex stands for an atom of the molecule, and edges between vertices represent bonds between atoms. This dataset is relative to anti-cancer screens where the chemicals are assessed as positive or negative to cell lung cancer. Each vertex has an input label representing the corresponding atom type, encoded by a one-hot-encoding scheme into a vector of 0/1 elements.

Papers archive 2025-07-28

30 shown of 62 papers with a leaderboard row on this dataset's benchmarks, newest first. The archive's own "papers using this dataset" list was never published, so this is the benchmark-backed subset; the archive's count for this dataset is 260. The Syntology column is from Syntology's graph (read 2026-09-24), stated per sample; it is not part of any archive number.
