The algorithm of building up a model for the biological activity of peptides as a mathematical function of a sequence of amino acids is suggested. The general scheme is the following: The total set of available data is distributed into the active training set, passive training set, calibration set, and validation set.

The training (both active and passive) and calibration sets are a system of generation of a model of biological activity where each amino acid obtains special correlation weight. The numerical data on the correlation weights calculated by the Monte Carlo method using the CORAL software (http://www.insilico.eu/coral).

The target function aimed to give the best result for the calibration set (not for the training set). The final checkup of the model is carried out with data on the validation set (peptides, which are not visible during the creation of the model).

Described computational experiments confirm the ability of the approach to be a tool for the design of predictive models for the biological activity of peptides (expressed by pIC50).
