ABSTRACT

Topological indices are a set of graph invariants that carry information about the structure of a molecule. In this study, we used a set of + and – signs for vertices and edges in chemical structures of 16 antimicrobial compounds in such a way that the number of + signs and – signs are balanced. Labeled topological indices were calculated for all compounds, and multiple regression models in different forms – linear, quadratic, cubic, exponential, and logarithmic – for six physicochemical properties – molecular weight (MW), polarizability, heavy atom count (HAC), boiling point (BP), molar refractivity (MR), and molar volume (MV) – are constructed. The results indicate that the labeled topological indices offer significant predictive ability. Comparison of results is performed by statistical parameters such as coefficient of determination (R²), mean absolute error (MAE), root mean square error (RMSE), and mean absolute percentage error (MAPE). The signed approach shows higher sensitivity for electronic effects in molecules for quantitative structure-property relationship predictions.
