HLTF generates chemically valid 3D molecules with improved topology control.
Molecule generation is to design new molecules with specific chemical properties and further to optimize the desired chemical properties. Following previous work, we encode molecules into continuous vectors in the latent space and then decode the vectors into molecules under the variational autoencoder (VAE) framework.…

We directly define modifications on molecules, thereby ensuring 100…
Molecular optimization aims to discover novel molecules with desirable properties. Two fundamental challenges are: (i) it is not trivial to generate valid molecules in a controllable way due to hard chemical constraints such as the valency conditions, and (ii) it is often costly to evaluate a property of a novel molecu…

Automatic Chemical Design is a framework for generating novel molecules with optimized properties.

We propose GraphNVP, the first invertible, normalizing flow-based molecular graph generation model.

This decomposition yields the exact likelihood maximization on graph-structured data, combined with t…
