@cgreene after you look at this, I'd be interested in discussing whether this type of problem should be in the scope of the review.
@agitter this seems to be within the scope of the review. Better drugs or a more efficient means of getting to them would seem to play a role in our guiding question.
There is recent related work from some of these authors: http://arxiv.org/abs/1606.08793
I'll have to read it to see if it needs its own issue. The application is ADMET (absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion, and/or toxicity) assays in an industrial setting.
@agitter @cgreene Quick note: This work used DistBelief (Google's pre-Tensorflow system) not Keras. Glad to provide any other clarifications on paper you folks need.
Thanks @rbharath, it's great to get direct input from papers' authors. I edited my notes above. You have a lot of expertise in this domain so let me know if you would be interested in seeing a draft of the drug discovery section or helping write some of the review.
@agitter Sure, I'd be glad to help write part of the review :-). Let me know where I can help out.
@rbharath #188 gives a fairly recent status report about which sections need the most attention. I'd be very interested in your perspective on #174, and we can take our discussion of drug discovery there.
The contributing page and draft intro could also be good overviews before diving in.

At a glance: Related to virtual screening #45. A supervised learning approach to drug discovery where molecular fingerprints are the input to a multitask classifier. Each classification task is a screening assay. Shows the benefits of multitask learning.
