Predicting oral disintegrating tablet formulations by neural network techniques.

ABSTRACT: Oral disintegrating tablets (ODTs) are a novel dosage form that can be dissolved on the tongue within 3 min or less especially for geriatric and pediatric patients. Current ODT formulation studies usually rely on the personal experience of pharmaceutical experts and trial-and-error in the laboratory, which is inefficient and time-consuming. The aim of current research was to establish the prediction model of ODT formulations with direct compression process by artificial neural network (ANN) and deep neural network (DNN) techniques. 145 formulation data were extracted from Web of Science. All datasets were divided into three parts: training set (105 data), validation set (20) and testing set (20). ANN and DNN were compared for the prediction of the disintegrating time. The accuracy of the A
