Introduction

Welcome to the Polaris documentation!

What is Polaris?

Our mission

Polaris is on a mission to bring innovators and practitioners closer together to develop methods that matter.

Polaris is an optimistic community that fundamentally believes in the ability of Machine Learning to radically improve lives by disrupting the drug discovery process. However, we recognize that the absence of standardized, domain-appropriate datasets, guidelines, and tools for method evaluation is limiting its current impact.

Polaris is a Python library designed to interact with the Polaris Hub. Our aim is to build the leading benchmarking platform for drug discovery, promoting the use of high-quality resources and domain-appropriate evaluation protocols. Learn more through our blog posts.
