Chainer Chemistry: A Library for Deep Learning in Biology and Chemistry

Chainer Chemistry is a deep learning framework (based on Chainer) with applications in Biology and Chemistry. It supports various state-of-the-art models (especially GCNN - Graph Convolutional Neural Network) for chemical property prediction.

For more information, please refer to the documentation. Also, a quick introduction to deep learning for molecules and Chainer Chemistry is available here.

Dependencies

Chainer Chemistry depends on the following packages:

• chainer
• pandas
• scikit-learn
• tqdm
• h5py

These are automatically added to the system when installing the library via the pip command (see Installation). However, the following needs to be installed manually:

• rdkit (release 2019.03.2.0)

Please refer to the RDKit documentation for more information regarding the installation steps.

Note that only the following versions of Chainer Chemistry's dependencies are currently supported:

[Footnote]

*1: We used FunctionNode in this PR, which is introduced after chainer v3. See this issue for details.

*2: Saliency modules only work after chainer v5.

*3: Chainer v6 is released and ChainerX is newly introduced. In order to support this new feature & API, we broke backward compatibility for chainer chemistry v0.6.0 release. See ChainerX Documentation for details.

*4: python 2.x support is dropped, following the same policy with chainer and rdkit.

*5: As announced in chainer blog, further development will be limited to only serious bug-fixes and maintenance.

Installation

Chainer Chemistry can be installed using the pip command, as follows:

pip install chainer-chemistry

Example to install rdkit with conda:

# newer conda version is necessary to install rdkit 2019.03.2.0
conda install -n base conda==4.6.14
conda install -c rdkit rdkit==2019.03.2.0

If you would like to use the latest sources, please checkout the master branch and install with the following commands:

git clone https://github.com/pfnet-research/chainer-chemistry.git
pip install -e chainer-chemistry

Sample Code

Sample code is provided with this repository. This includes, but is not limited to, the following:
