Several works quantitative structure-activity relationships (QSAR) of anti-human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) molecules were studied by different statistical methods and non-linear models. But few studies have used the heuristic methods. In this paper, a hybrid decision trees (DT) and adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) is used for the prediction of inhibitory activity of anti-VIH molecules. DT algorithm is utilized to select the most important variables in QSAR modeling and then these variables were used as inputs of ANFIS to predict the anti-HIV activity. The model's predictions were compared with other methods and the results indicated that the proposed models in this work are superior over the others.
