The representation of molecular structures is crucial for molecular machine learning strategies. Although graph representations are highly versatile and show their broad applicability, they lack information about the quantum-chemical properties of molecular structures. This work proposes a new way to infuse such information into molecular graphs, using a supervised learning method. As a result, the model is able to predict essential higher-order interactions between electron-rich and electron-deficient localized orbitals. The learned interactions are then used as a representation for the prediction of downstream tasks, improving over QM9 baselines.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
