spurious fit that arises when many candidate descriptors are screened in multiple regression, so apparent structure-activity relations can emerge from random variables.

In chemometrics, chance correlation refers to spurious fit that arises when many candidate descriptors are screened in multiple regression, so apparent structure-activity relations can emerge from random variables. This meaning comes from Topliss (1972) in Journal of Medicinal Chemistry.[1]
