Geometric learning of the conformational dynamics of molecules using dynamic graph neural networks


الملخص بالإنكليزية

We apply a temporal edge prediction model for weighted dynamic graphs to predict time-dependent changes in molecular structure. Each molecule is represented as a complete graph in which each atom is a vertex and all vertex pairs are connected by an edge weighted by the Euclidean distance between atom pairs. We ingest a sequence of complete molecular graphs into a dynamic graph neural network (GNN) to predict the graph at the next time step. Our dynamic GNN predicts atom-to-atom distances with a mean absolute error of 0.017 r{A}, which is considered ``chemically accurate for molecular simulations. We also explored the transferability of a trained network to new molecular systems and found that finetuning with less than 10% of the total trajectory provides a mean absolute error of the same order of magnitude as that when training from scratch on the full molecular trajectory.
