The present work aims to obtain optimalmodels to predict the total antioxidant properties of food matrices, using available informationon the amount and class of flavonoids present in vegetables. A new dataset using databases thatcollect the flavonoid content of selected foods has been created. Structural information was obtainedusing a structural-topological approach called TOPological Sub-Structural Molecular (TOPSMODE).Different artificial intelligence algorithms were applied, including Machine Learning (ML) methods.The study allowed us to demonstrate the effectiveness of the models using structural-topologicalcharacteristics of dietary flavonoids. The proposed models can be considered, without overfitting,effective in predicting new values of Oxygen Radical Absorption capacity (ORAC), except in theMulti-Layer Perceptron (MLP) algorithm. The best optimal model was obtained by the RandomForest (RF) algorithm. The in silico methodology we developed allows us to confirm the effectivenessof the obtained models, by introducing the new structural-topological attributes, as well as selectingthose that most influence the class variable PB MDPI YR 2019 FD 2019 LK http://hdl.handle.net/10347/23034 UL http://hdl.handle.net/10347/23034 LA eng NO Guardado Yordi, E.; Koelig, R.; Matos, M.J.; Pérez Martínez, A.; Caballero, Y.; Santana, L.; Pérez Quintana, M.; Molina, E.; Uriarte, E.
