• Abstract: It is well known that Drug Design is often a costly process both in terms of time and economic effort. While good Quantitative Structure-Activity Relationship models (QSAR) can help predicting molecular properties without the need to synthesize them, it is still required to come up with new molecules to be tested. This is mostly done in lack of tools to determine which modifications are more promising or which aspects of a molecule are more influential for the final activity/property. Here we present an automatic process which involves Graph Convolutional Network models and input-attribution methods to generate new molecules. We also explore the problems of over-optimization and applicability, recognizing them as two important aspects in the practical use of such automatic tools.

  We develop molecular embeddings that encode complex molecular characteristics to improve the performance of few-shot molecular property prediction. Our approach leverages large amounts of synthetic data, namely the results of molecular docking calculations. On multiple molecular property prediction benchmarks, training from the embedding space substantially improves Multi-Task, MAML, and Prototypical Network few-shot learning performance.

  We propose a novel paradigm of "pre-train, prompt, fine-tune" for molecular representation learning, named molecule continuous prompt tuning (MolCPT) MolCPT defines a motif prompting function that uses the pre-trained model to project the standalone input into an expressive prompt. Experiments on several benchmark datasets show that MolCPT efficiently generalizes pre-trained GNNs for molecular property prediction.

  We propose a new retrieval-based framework for controllable molecule generation. We use a small set of molecules to steer the pre-trained generative model towards synthesizing molecules that satisfy the given design criteria. Our approach is agnostic to the choice of generative models and requires no task-specific fine-tuning.

  Graph neural networks (GNNs) are a novel machine learning method that directly work on the molecular graph. GNNs allow to learn properties in an end-to-end fashion, thereby avoiding the need for informative descriptors. We describe the fundamentals of GNNs and demonstrate the application of GNNs via two examples for molecular property prediction.
