Experimental techniques are time-consuming and expensive so computational methods, such as machine learning, are needed for efficient exploration. Here we looked at generative models, more specifically variational autoencoder (VAE) and conditional variational autoencoder (CVAE), used for designing new molecules. In the first part, we evaluated already written VAE and in the second part, we upgraded it to the CVAE. For the conditional vectors in CVAE we used B4 Signatures generated from Chemical Checker describing molecular properties. Both models performed well, however, CVAE showed many advantages.50 p.application/pdfengcc-by-sa (c) Špela Zavodnik, 2019http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/es/Aprenentatge automàticXarxes neuronals (Informàtica)Treballs de fi de màsterQuimioinformàticaMachine learningNeural networks (Computer science)Master's thesesCheminformaticsDe novo design of small molecules using variational and conditional variational autoencodersinfo:eu-repo/semantics/masterThesisinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess
