Overview of the DEEPScreen architecture. Each prediction model included in DEEPScreen takes as input small molecule ligands in the form of SMILES representations, transforms them into 200-by-200 pixel 2D structural images, and then runs a predictive CNN model on them in order to predict whether these ligands are either active (i.e., interacting) or inactive (i.e., non-interacting) against a specific target protein [36]
