Installation

The project can be installed by pip with --find-links arguments for torch-geometric package.

pip install -e . --find-links https://data.pyg.org/whl/torch-2.1.2+cu121.html # CUDA
pip install -e . --find-links https://data.pyg.org/whl/torch-2.1.2+cpu.html # CPU-only

Data

Dataset Structure

Initially, the structure of directory data/ is as follows.

├── data/
    ├── ZINC/               (Constructed from https://github.com/wengong-jin/icml18-jtnn)
    │   ├── data.csv
    │   └── library.csv
    ├── 3CL_ZINC/           (Smina calculation result. (ligands: ZINC15, receptor: 7L13))
    └── UniDock_ZINC/       (UniDock calculation result.)

• data/ZINC/, data/3CL_ZINC/ : Dataset which used in our paper.

Prepare Your Own Dataset

For your own dataset, you need to prepare data.csv as follows.

• ./data/<OWN-DATA>/data.csv

  KEY,SMILES,Property1,Property2,...
  1,c1ccccc1,10.25,32.21,...
  2,C1CCCC1,35.1,251.2,...
  ...
  

  • KEY field is optional.
  • SMILES field must be RDKit-readable.
  • If you want to train a single molecule set with different properties, you don't have to configure datasets separately for each property. You need to configure just one dataset file which contains all of property information. For example, ZINC/data.csv contains information about mw, logp, tpsa, qed, and you can train the model with property or properties, e.g. mw, [mw, logp, tpsa].

Preprocess

You need to preprocess dataset. Go to root directory and run ./script/preprocess.py.

cd <ROOT-DIR>
python ./script/preprocess.py \
  --data_dir ./data/<DATA-DIR> \
  --cpus <N-CPUS> \
  --split_ratio 0.9  # train:val split ratio.

After preprocessing step, the structure of directory data/ is as follows.

├── data/
    ├── <DATA-DIR>/
        ├── data.csv
        ├── valid_data.csv  new!
        ├── data.pkl        new!
        ├── library.csv     new!
        └── split.csv       new!

Model Training

The model training requires less than 12 hours with 1 GPU(RTX2080) and 4 CPUs(Intel Xeon Gold 6234).

Training

cd <ROOT-DIR>
python ./script/train.py -h

Training Script Format Example

Our training script reads model config files ./config/model.yaml. You can change model size by modifying or creating new config files. You can find another arguments through running with -h flag.

python ./script/train.py \
    --name <exp-name> \
    --exp_dir <exp-dir-name> \          # default: ./result/
    --property <property1> <property2> ... \
    --data_dir <DATA-DIR> \             # default: ./data/ZINC/
    --model_config <model-config-path>  # default: ./config/model.yaml

Example running script

python ./script/train.py \
    --name 'logp-tpsa' \
    --exp_dir ./result/ZINC/ \
    --data_dir ./data/ZINC/ \
    --property logp tpsa

python ./script/train.py \
    --name '3cl_affinity' \
    --exp_dir ./result/3cl_affinity/ \
    --data_dir ./data/3CL_ZINC/ \
    --property affinity

Generation

The model generates 20 to 30 molecules per 1 second with 1 CPU(Intel Xeon E5-2667 v4).

Download Pretrained Models.

# Download Weights of pretrained models. (mw, logp, tpsa, qed, 3cl-affinity)
# Path: ./test/pretrained_model/
cd <ROOT-DIR>
sh ./download-weights.sh

Generation

cd <ROOT-DIR>
python ./script/sample_denovo.py -h
python ./script/sample_scaffold.py -h

Example running script.

# Output directory path
mkdir ./result_sample

# De novo generation.
python ./script/sample_denovo.py \
    -g ./test/generation_config/logp.yaml \
    -n 100 \
    --logp 6 \
    -o ./result_sample/logp-6-denovo.smi \
    --seed 0

# Scaffold-based generation. => use `-s` or `--scaffold`
python ./script/sample_scaffold.py \
    -g ./test/generation_config/logp.yaml \
    -s "c1ccccc1" \
    -n 100 \
    --logp 2 \
    -o ./result_sample/logp-2-scaffold.smi

# Scaffold-based generation. (From File) => use `-S` or `--scaffold_path`
python ./script/sample_scaffold.py \
    --generator_config ./test/generation_config/mw.yaml \
    --scaffold_path ./test/start_scaffolds.smi \
    --num_samples 100 \
    --mw 300 \
    --o ./result_sample/mw-300-scaffold.smi \
    --seed 0 -q

Generator config (Yaml)

• generator config format (./config/generator.yaml)

  # If library_builtin_model_path is not null, generator save or load library-builtin model.
  # The library-builtin model contains model parameters and library information.
  # 	(library information: SMILES and latent vector of building block)
  # During configuration process of generator, model vectorizes all building blocks in library.
  # This process requires about 30 seconds. With library-builtin model, this process is skipped.
  # When the file `library_builtin_model_path` exists, upper two parameters (`model_path`, `library_path`) are not needed.
  model_path: <MODEL_PATH>
  library_path: <LIBRARY_PATH>
  library_builtin_model_path: <LIBRARY_BUILTIN_MODEL_PATH>  # optional
  
  # Required
