    International audienceMolecular docking enables large-scale prediction of whether and how small molecules bind to a macromolecular target. Machine-learning scoring functions are particularly well suited to predict the strength of this interaction. Here we describe how to build RF-Score, a scoring function utilizing the machine-learning technique known as Random Forest (RF). We also point out how to use different data, features, and regression models using either R or Python programming languages
