About alvaModel
alvaModel is a software tool for building, validating, comparing, and applying QSAR and QSPR models. It supports regression and classification workflows based on molecular descriptors and fingerprints, with a strong focus on model transparency, interpretability, and scientific robustness.
The software includes multiple data splitting strategies, variable selection methods, modeling algorithms, and comprehensive internal and external validation procedures. alvaModel provides diagnostic plots, applicability domain analysis, and model comparison tools to support the identification of reliable and predictive models.
Designed according to best practices in chemometrics, alvaModel facilitates the development of interpretable models consistent with the OECD principles for QSAR validation, making it suitable for research and regulatory-oriented applications. The graphical interface guides users through the entire modeling workflow while allowing full control over each modeling step.
