作者:

Highlights:

• A contribution to drug repurposing using deep learning and optimization is proposed.

• A novel deep learning model is developed to predict Drug-Target binding affinities.

• The proposed model integrates a Convolutional Neural Network on the top of a BiLSTM.

• The Hyperparameters of the model are set using a Differential Evolution algorithm.

• The Differential Evolution-based learning framework outperformed baseline methods.
