The proposed ZeroDDI method tackles the zero-shot drug-drug interaction event (DDIE) prediction task, which involves categorizing unseen DDIEs without labeled instances in the training stage. The approach focuses on learning suitable representations of DDIEs and handling class imbalance issues. To achieve this, it designs a biological semantic enhanced representation learning module that emphasizes key biological semantics and distills discriminative molecular substructure-related semantics for DDIE representation learning. Additionally, the dual-modal uniform alignment strategy is proposed to distribute drug pair representations and DDIE semantic representations uniformly in a unit sphere, aligning matched ones to mitigate class imbalance. The results demonstrate that ZeroDDI outperforms baselines and indicates its potential as a promising tool for detecting unseen DDIEs.

The paper proposes a new method called ZeroDDI to predict unseen drug-drug interaction events (DDIEs). This is important because doctors need to know how different medicines interact with each other. The problem is that there are many possible interactions, and most of them haven’t been seen before. To solve this, the authors designed a special way to learn about DDIEs and another way to make sure the method doesn’t favor one type of interaction over others. They tested their method and found it worked better than other approaches.
