Comparing search algorithms on the retrosynthesis problem.
In this article we try different algorithms, namely Nested Monte Carlo Search and Greedy Best First Search, on AstraZeneca's open source retrosynthetic tool : AiZynthFinder. We compare these algorithms to AiZynthFinder's base Monte Carlo Tree Search on a benchmark selected from the PubChem database and by Bayer's chemists. We show that both Nested Monte Carlo Search and Greedy Best First Search outperform AstraZeneca's Monte Carlo Tree Search, with a slight advantage for Nested Monte Carlo Search while experimenting on a playout heuristic. We also show how the search algorithms are bounded by the quality of the policy network, in order to improve our results the next step is to improve the policy network.
期刊介绍:
Molecular Informatics is a peer-reviewed, international forum for publication of high-quality, interdisciplinary research on all molecular aspects of bio/cheminformatics and computer-assisted molecular design. Molecular Informatics succeeded QSAR & Combinatorial Science in 2010.
Molecular Informatics presents methodological innovations that will lead to a deeper understanding of ligand-receptor interactions, macromolecular complexes, molecular networks, design concepts and processes that demonstrate how ideas and design concepts lead to molecules with a desired structure or function, preferably including experimental validation.
The journal''s scope includes but is not limited to the fields of drug discovery and chemical biology, protein and nucleic acid engineering and design, the design of nanomolecular structures, strategies for modeling of macromolecular assemblies, molecular networks and systems, pharmaco- and chemogenomics, computer-assisted screening strategies, as well as novel technologies for the de novo design of biologically active molecules. As a unique feature Molecular Informatics publishes so-called "Methods Corner" review-type articles which feature important technological concepts and advances within the scope of the journal.
