Retrosynthetic route finding using neural network guided Monte-Carlo tree search
Project description
AiZynthFinder
AiZynthFinder is a tool for retrosynthetic planning. The algorithm is based on a Monte Carlo tree search that recursively breaks down a molecule to purchasable precursors. The tree search is guided by a policy that suggests possible precursors by utilizing a neural network trained on a library of known reaction templates.

Prerequisites
Before you begin, ensure you have met the following requirements:
-
Linux, Windows or macOS platforms are supported - as long as the dependencies are supported on these platforms.
-
You have installed anaconda or miniconda with python 3.8 - 3.9
The tool has been developed on a Linux platform, but the software has been tested on Windows 10 and macOS Catalina.
Installation
For end-users
First time, execute the following command in a console or an Anaconda prompt
conda create "python>=3.8,<3.10" -n aizynth-env
To install, activate the environment and install the package using pypi
conda activate aizynth-env
python -m pip install aizynthfinder[all]
for a smaller package, without all the functionality, you can also type
python -m pip install aizynthfinder
For developers
First clone the repository using Git.
Then execute the following commands in the root of the repository
conda env create -f env-dev.yml
conda activate aizynth-dev
poetry install -E all
the aizynthfinder
package is now installed in editable mode.
Usage
The tool will install the aizynthcli
and aizynthapp
tools
as interfaces to the algorithm:
aizynthcli --config config.yml --smiles smiles.txt
aizynthapp --config config.yml
Consult the documentation here for more information.
To use the tool you need
1. A stock file
2. A trained rollout policy network (including the Keras model and the list of unique templates)
3. A trained filer policy network (optional)
Such files can be downloaded from figshare and here or they can be downloaded automatically using
download_public_data my_folder
where my_folder
is the folder that you want download to.
This will create a config.yml
file that you can use with either aizynthcli
or aizynthapp
.
Development
Testing
Tests uses the pytest
package, and is installed by poetry
Run the tests using:
pytest -v
The full command run on the CI server is available through an invoke
command
invoke full-tests
Documentation generation
The documentation is generated by Sphinx from hand-written tutorials and docstrings
The HTML documentation can be generated by
invoke build-docs
