Graph neural networks (GNNs) have been proposed for a wide range of graph-related learning tasks. In particular, in recent years, an increasing number of GNN systems were applied to predict molecular properties. However, a direct impediment is to select appropriate hyperparameters to achieve satisfactory performance with lower computational cost. Meanwhile, many molecular datasets are far smaller than many other datasets in typical deep learning applications. Most hyperparameter optimization (HPO) methods have not been explored in terms of their efficiencies on such small datasets in the molecular domain. In this paper, we conducted a theoretical analysis of common and specific features for two state-of-the-art and popular algorithms for HPO: TPE and CMA-ES, and we compared them with random search (RS), which is used as a baseline. Experimental studies are carried out on several benchmarks in MoleculeNet, from different perspectives to investigate the impact of RS, TPE, and CMA-ES on HPO of GNNs for molecular property prediction. In our experiments, we concluded that RS, TPE, and CMA-ES have their individual advantages in tackling different specific molecular problems. Finally, we believe our work will motivate further research on GNN as applied to molecular machine learning problems in chemistry and materials sciences.

The crux of molecular property prediction is to generate meaningful representations of the molecules. One promising route is to exploit the molecular graph structure through Graph Neural Networks (GNNs). It is well known that both atoms and bonds sig nificantly affect the chemical properties of a molecule, so an expressive model shall be able to exploit both node (atom) and edge (bond) information simultaneously. Guided by this observation, we present Multi-View Graph Neural Network (MV-GNN), a multi-view message passing architecture to enable more accurate predictions of molecular properties. In MV-GNN, we introduce a shared self-attentive readout component and disagreement loss to stabilize the training process. This readout component also renders the whole architecture interpretable. We further boost the expressive power of MV-GNN by proposing a cross-dependent message passing scheme that enhances information communication of the two views, which results in the MV-GNN^cross variant. Lastly, we theoretically justify the expressiveness of the two proposed models in terms of distinguishing non-isomorphism graphs. Extensive experiments demonstrate that MV-GNN models achieve remarkably superior performance over the state-of-the-art models on a variety of challenging benchmarks. Meanwhile, visualization results of the node importance are consistent with prior knowledge, which confirms the interpretability power of MV-GNN models.
Properties of molecules are indicative of their functions and thus are useful in many applications. With the advances of deep learning methods, computational approaches for predicting molecular properties are gaining increasing momentum. However, the re lacks customized and advanced methods and comprehensive tools for this task currently. Here we develop a suite of comprehensive machine learning methods and tools spanning different computational models, molecular representations, and loss functions for molecular property prediction and drug discovery. Specifically, we represent molecules as both graphs and sequences. Built on these representations, we develop novel deep models for learning from molecular graphs and sequences. In order to learn effectively from highly imbalanced datasets, we develop advanced loss functions that optimize areas under precision-recall curves. Altogether, our work not only serves as a comprehensive tool, but also contributes towards developing novel and advanced graph and sequence learning methodologies. Results on both online and offline antibiotics discovery and molecular property prediction tasks show that our methods achieve consistent improvements over prior methods. In particular, our methods achieve #1 ranking in terms of both ROC-AUC and PRC-AUC on the AI Cures Open Challenge for drug discovery related to COVID-19. Our software is released as part of the MoleculeX library under AdvProp.
Recently, the study of graph neural network (GNN) has attracted much attention and achieved promising performance in molecular property prediction. Most GNNs for molecular property prediction are proposed based on the idea of learning the representat ions for the nodes by aggregating the information of their neighbor nodes (e.g. atoms). Then, the representations can be passed to subsequent layers to deal with individual downstream tasks. Therefore, the architectures of GNNs can be considered as being composed of two core parts: graph-related layers and task-specific layers. Facing real-world molecular problems, the hyperparameter optimization for those layers are vital. Hyperparameter optimization (HPO) becomes expensive in this situation because evaluating candidate solutions requires massive computational resources to train and validate models. Furthermore, a larger search space often makes the HPO problems more challenging. In this research, we focus on the impact of selecting two types of GNN hyperparameters, those belonging to graph-related layers and those of task-specific layers, on the performance of GNN for molecular property prediction. In our experiments. we employed a state-of-the-art evolutionary algorithm (i.e., CMA-ES) for HPO. The results reveal that optimizing the two types of hyperparameters separately can gain the improvements on GNNs performance, but optimising both types of hyperparameters simultaneously will lead to predominant improvements. Meanwhile, our study also further confirms the importance of HPO for GNNs in molecular property prediction problems.
Molecule property prediction is a fundamental problem for computer-aided drug discovery and materials science. Quantum-chemical simulations such as density functional theory (DFT) have been widely used for calculating the molecule properties, however , because of the heavy computational cost, it is difficult to search a huge number of potential chemical compounds. Machine learning methods for molecular modeling are attractive alternatives, however, the development of expressive, accurate, and scalable graph neural networks for learning molecular representations is still challenging. In this work, we propose a simple and powerful graph neural networks for molecular property prediction. We model a molecular as a directed complete graph in which each atom has a spatial position, and introduce a recursive neural network with simple gating function. We also feed input embeddings for every layers as skip connections to accelerate the training. Experimental results show that our model achieves the state-of-the-art performance on the standard benchmark dataset for molecular property prediction.
In recent years, graph neural networks (GNNs) have gained increasing attention, as they possess the excellent capability of processing graph-related problems. In practice, hyperparameter optimisation (HPO) is critical for GNNs to achieve satisfactory results, but this process is costly because the evaluations of different hyperparameter settings require excessively training many GNNs. Many approaches have been proposed for HPO, which aims to identify promising hyperparameters efficiently. In particular, the genetic algorithm (GA) for HPO has been explored, which treats GNNs as a black-box model, of which only the outputs can be observed given a set of hyperparameters. However, because GNN models are sophisticated and the evaluations of hyperparameters on GNNs are expensive, GA requires advanced techniques to balance the exploration and exploitation of the search and make the optimisation more effective given limited computational resources. Therefore, we proposed a tree-structured mutation strategy for GA to alleviate this issue. Meanwhile, we reviewed the recent HPO works, which gives room for the idea of tree-structure to develop, and we hope our approach can further improve these HPO methods in the future.
