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

Chainer Chemistry is a collection of tools to train and run neural networks for tasks in biology and chemistry using Chainer[1].

It supports various state-of-the-art deep learning neural network models (especially Graph Convolution Neural Network) for chemical molecule property prediction.

For more information, you can refer to documentation.

Quick start

1. Installation

Chainer Chemistry can be installed by pip command.

Note that it uses rdkit, Open-Source Cheminformatics Software. Below code is an example to install rdkit by conda command provided by anaconda.

pip install chainer-chemistry
conda install -c rdkit rdkit

2. Run example training code

The official repository provides examples several graph convolution networks with the Tox21 and QM9 datasets (the Tox21 example has inference code as well). You can obtain the code by cloning the repository:

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

The following code is how to train Neural Fingerprint (NFP) with the Tox21 dataset on CPU:

cd chainer-chemistry/examples/tox21
python train_tox21.py --method=nfp  --gpu=-1  # set --gpu=0 if you have GPU

Installation

Usual users can install this library via PyPI:

pip install chainer-chemistry

Chainer Chemistry is still in experimental development. If you would like to use latest sources. please install master branch with the command:

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

Dependencies

Following packages are required to install Chainer Chemistry and are automatically installed when you install it by pip command.

• chainer
• pandas
• scikit-learn
• tqdm

Also, it uses following library, you need to manually install it.

• rdkit

See the official document for installation. If you have setup anaconda, you may install rdkit by following command.

conda install -c rdkit rdkit
