Build a Model Based on In Vitro Data

Summary: In this tutorial, you will build a predictive model based on in-vitro data using OpenTox web services by means of both a Graphical User Interface (GUI) and the command line. Several models can be built and inspected.

Objective:

Learn to handle searching facilities, data representation, and API of the OpenTox framework, specifically in the context of in-vitro data.

Steps:

1.    Inspect data from US EPA's Toxcast Program.
2.    Select in vitro assays based on correlation to an in-vivo endpoint.
3.    Use the ToxCreate webapplication to create a model

a.    Fill the data into an Excel Sheet
b.    Create the model
c.    Make a prediction

4.    Create a model using the Opentox API

a.    Locate data on the ambit webservice.
b.    Create a model on the command line using curl.
c.    Make a prediction.
