This code was tested in Python 3.5 with Tensorflow 1.3. conda, docopt and rdkit are also necessary. A Bash script is provided to install all these requirements.
source ./install.sh
To evaluate SAS scores, use get_sascorer.sh to download the SAS implementation from rdkit
Three datasets (QM9, ZINC and CEPDB) are in use. For downloading CEPDB, please refer to CEPDB.
For downloading QM9 and ZINC, please go to data directory and run get_qm9.py and get_zinc.py, respectively.
python get_qm9.py
python get_zinc.py
We provide two settings of CGVAE. The first setting samples one breadth first search path for each molecule. The second setting samples transitions from multiple breadth first search paths for each molecule.
To train and generate molecules using the first setting, use
python CGVAE.py --dataset qm9|zinc|cep
To avoid training and generate molecules with a pretrained model, use
python CGVAE.py --dataset qm9|zinc|cep --restore pretrained_model --config '{"generation": true}'
To train and generate molecules using the second setting, use
python CGVAE.py --dataset qm9|zinc|cep --config '{"sample_transition": true, "multi_bfs_path": true, "path_random_order": true}'
To use optimization in the latent space, set optimization_step to a positive number
python CGVAE.py --dataset qm9|zinc|cep --restore pretrained_model --config '{"generation": true, "optimization_step": 50}'
More configurations can be found at function default_params in CGVAE.py
To evaluate the generated molecules, use
python evaluate.py --dataset qm9|zinc|cep
Generated molecules can be obtained upon request.
A program in folder molecules is provided to read and visualize the molecules
python visualize.py molecule_file output_file
