Abstract
The problem of designing new antitubercular drugs against multiple drug‐resistant tuberculosis (MDR‐TB) was addressed using advanced machine learning methods. As there are only few published measurements against MDR‐TB, we collected a large literature data set and developed models against the non‐resistant H37Rv strain. The predictive accuracy of these models had a coefficient of determination q 2 = .7–.8 (regression models) and balanced accuracies of about 80% (classification models) with cross‐validation and independent test sets. The models were applied to screen a virtual chemical library, which was designed to have MDR‐TB activity. The seven most promising compounds were identified, synthesized and tested. All of them showed activity against the H37Rv strain, and three molecules demonstrated activity against the MDR‐TB strain. The docking analysis indicated that the discovered molecules could bind enoyl reductase, InhA, which is required in mycobacterial cell wall development. The models are freely available online ( http://ochem.eu/article/103868 ) and can be used to predict potential anti‐TB activity of new chemicals.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
