Machine learning prediction of UV-Vis spectra features of organic compounds related to photoreactive potential.

ABSTRACT: Machine learning (ML) algorithms were explored for the classification of the UV-Vis absorption spectrum of organic molecules based on molecular descriptors and fingerprints generated from 2D chemical structures. Training and test data (~ 75 k molecules and associated UV-Vis data) were assembled from a database with lists of experimental absorption maxima. They were labeled with positive class (related to photoreactive potential) if an absorption maximum is reported in the range between 290 and 700 nm (UV/Vis) with molar extinction coefficient (MEC) above 1000 Lmol^-1 cm^-1, and as negative if no such a peak is in the list. Random forests were selected among several algorithms. The models were validated with two external test sets comprising 998 organic molecules, obtaining a global accuracy up to 0.89, sensitivity of 0.90 and specificity of 0.88. The ML output (UV-Vis spectrum class) was explored as a predictor of the 3T3 NRU phototoxicity in vitro assay for a set of 43 molecules. Comparable results were observed with the classification directly based on experimental UV-Vis data in the same format.

Project description:Knowledge of the glass transition temperature of molecular compounds that occur in atmospheric aerosol particles is important for estimating their viscosity, as it directly influences the kinetics of chemical reactions and particle phase state. While there is a great diversity of organic compounds present in aerosol particles, for only a minor fraction of them experimental glass transition temperatures are known. Therefore, we have developed a machine learning model designed to predict the glass transition temperature of organic molecular compounds based on molecule-derived input variables. The extremely randomized trees (extra trees) procedure was chosen for this purpose. Two approaches using different sets of input variables were followed. The first one uses the number of selected functional groups present in the compound, while the second one generates descriptors from a SMILES (Simplified Molecular Input Line Entry System) string. Organic compounds containing carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, and halogen atoms are included. For improved results, both approaches can be combined with the melting temperature of the compound as an additional input variable. The results show that the predictions of both approaches show a similar mean absolute error of about 12-13 K, with the SMILES-based predictions performing slightly better. In general, the model shows good predictive power considering the diversity of the experimental input data. Furthermore, we also show that its performance exceeds that of previous parameterizations developed for this purpose and also performs better than existing machine learning models. In order to provide user-friendly versions of the model for applications, we have developed a web site where the model can be run by interested scientists via a web-based interface without prior technical knowledge. We also provide Python code of the model. Additionally, all experimental input data are provided in form of the Bielefeld Molecular Organic Glasses (BIMOG) database. We believe that this model is a powerful tool for many applications in atmospheric aerosol science and material science.
