Abstract

In this chapter, we use computational methods to illustrate drug repurposing with the example of COVID-19. Here, the current status of drug discovery has been described with various aspects of drug repurposing interactions, use of algorithms in drug repurposing, re-evaluation of existing drugs, challenges in drug repurposing, and biological and computational interpretation of personalised and AI-guided repurposing. In addition, we present blueprints for pacing up the drug repurposing process using artificial intelligence. This chapter is devoted to the use of computational intelligence for drug repurposing against various diseases, including COVID-19.
