unimol_tools is a Python package for property prediction with Uni-Mol in molecule, materials and protein.

Uni-Mol Tools

Unimol_tools is a easy-use wrappers for property prediction,representation and downstreams with Uni-Mol.

Uni-Mol tools for various prediction and downstreams.

Install

• pytorch is required, please install pytorch according to your environment. if you are using cuda, please install pytorch with cuda. More details can be found at https://pytorch.org/get-started/locally/

Option 1: Installing from PyPi (Recommended, for stable version)

pip install unimol_tools --upgrade

We recommend installing huggingface_hub so that the required unimol models can be automatically downloaded at runtime! It can be install by

pip install huggingface_hub

huggingface_hub allows you to easily download and manage models from the Hugging Face Hub, which is key for using Uni-Mol models.

Option 2: Installing from source (for latest version)

## Clone repository
git clone https://github.com/deepmodeling/unimol_tools.git
cd unimol_tools

## Dependencies installation
pip install -r requirements.txt

## Install
python setup.py install

Models in Huggingface

The UniMol pretrained models can be found at dptech/Uni-Mol-Models.

If pretrained_model_path or pretrained_dict_path are left as None the toolkit will automatically download the corresponding files from this Hugging Face repository at runtime.

If the download is slow, you can use a mirror, such as:

export HF_ENDPOINT=https://hf-mirror.com

By default unimol_tools first tries the official Hugging Face endpoint. If that fails and HF_ENDPOINT is not set, it automatically retries using https://hf-mirror.com. Set HF_ENDPOINT yourself if you want to explicitly choose a mirror or the official site.

Modify the default directory for weights

Setting the UNIMOL_WEIGHT_DIR environment variable specifies the directory for pre-trained weights if the weights have been downloaded from another source.

export UNIMOL_WEIGHT_DIR=/path/to/your/weights/dir/

Examples

Molecule property prediction

from unimol_tools import MolTrain, MolPredict
clf = MolTrain(
    task='classification',
    data_type='molecule',
    epochs=10,
    batch_size=16,
    metrics='auc',
    # pretrained weights are downloaded automatically when left as ``None``
    # pretrained_model_path='/path/to/checkpoint.ckpt',
    # pretrained_dict_path='/path/to/dict.txt',
)
clf.fit(data = train_data)
# currently support data with smiles based csv/txt file, and sdf file with mol,
# and custom dict of {'atoms':[['C','C'],['C','H','O']], 'coordinates':[coordinates_1,coordinates_2]}

# The dict format can refer to the following format, or be obtained from sdf, 
# which can also be directly input into the model.
train_sdf = PandasTools.LoadSDF('exp/unimol_conformers_train.sdf')
train_dict = {
    'atoms': [list(atom.GetSymbol() for atom in mol.GetAtoms()) for mol in train_sdf['ROMol']],
    # atoms[0]: ['C', 'C', 'O', 'C', 'O', 'C', ...]
    'coordinates': [mol.GetConformers()[0].GetPositions() for mol in train_sdf['ROMol']],
    # coordinates[0]: array([[ 6.6462, -1.8268,  1.9275],
    #                        [ 6.1552, -1.9367,  0.4873],
    #                        [ 5.1832, -0.8757,  0.3007],
    #                        [ 5.4651, -0.0272, -0.7266],
    #                        [ 4.8586, -0.0844, -1.7917],
    #                        [ 6.5362,  0.9767, -0.3742],
    #                        ...,])
    'TARGET': train_sdf['TARGET'].tolist()
    # TARGET: [0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 0, ...]
}
# clf.fit(data = train_sdf)
# clf.fit(data = train_dict)


clf = MolPredict(load_model='../exp')
res = clf.predict(data = test_data)

Molecule representation

import numpy as np
from unimol_tools import UniMolRepr
# single SMILES UniMol representation. If no paths are provided the
# pretrained model and dictionary are fetched from Hugging Face.
clf = UniMolRepr(
    data_type='molecule',
    remove_hs=False,
    # pretrained_model_path='/path/to/checkpoint.ckpt',
    # pretrained_dict_path='/path/to/dict.txt',
)
smiles = 'c1ccc(cc1)C2=NCC(=O)Nc3c2cc(cc3)[N+](=O)[O]'
smiles_list = [smiles]
unimol_repr = clf.get_repr(smiles_list, return_atomic_reprs=True)
# CLS token repr
print(np.array(unimol_repr['cls_repr']).shape)
# atomic level repr, align with rdkit mol.GetAtoms()
print(np.array(unimol_repr['atomic_reprs']).shape)

Command-line utilities

Hydra-powered entry points make training, prediction, and representation available from the command line. Key-value pairs override options from the YAML files in unimol_tools/config.

Training

python -m unimol_tools.cli.run_train \
    train_path=train.csv \
    task=regression \
    save_path=./exp \
    smiles_col=smiles \
    target_cols=[target1] \
    epochs=10 \
    learning_rate=1e-4 \
    batch_size=16 \
    kfold=5

Prediction

python -m unimol_tools.cli.run_predict load_model=./exp data_path=test.csv

Representation

python -m unimol_tools.cli.run_repr data_path=test.csv smiles_col=smiles

Molecule pretraining

unimol_tools provides a command-line utility for pretraining Uni-Mol models on your own dataset. The script uses Hydra so configuration values can be overridden at the command line. Two common invocation examples are shown below: one for LMDB data and one for a CSV of SMILES strings.

LMDB dataset

export TORCH_NCCL_ASYNC_ERROR_HANDLING=1
export HYDRA_FULL_ERROR=1
export OMP_NUM_THREADS=1

torchrun --standalone --nproc_per_node=NUM_GPUS \
    -m unimol_tools.cli.run_pretrain \
    dataset.train_path=train.lmdb \
    dataset.valid_path=valid.lmdb \
    dataset.data_type=lmdb \
    dataset.dict_path=dict.txt \
    training.total_steps=1000000 \
    training.batch_size=16 \
    training.update_freq=1

dataset.dict_path is optional. The effective batch size is n_gpu * training.batch_size * training.update_freq.

CSV dataset

export TORCH_NCCL_ASYNC_ERROR_HANDLING=1
export HYDRA_FULL_ERROR=1
export OMP_NUM_THREADS=1

torchrun --standalone --nproc_per_node=NUM_GPUS \
    -m unimol_tools.cli.run_pretrain \
    dataset.train_path=train.csv \
    dataset.valid_path=valid.csv \
    dataset.data_type=csv \
    dataset.smiles_column=smiles \
    training.total_steps=1000000 \
    training.batch_size=16 \
    training.update_freq=1

For multi-node training, specify additional arguments, for example:

export TORCH_NCCL_ASYNC_ERROR_HANDLING=1
export HYDRA_FULL_ERROR=1
export OMP_NUM_THREADS=1

torchrun --nnodes=2 --nproc_per_node=8 --node_rank=0 \
    --master_addr=<master-ip> --master_port=<port> \
    -m unimol_tools.cli.run_pretrain ...

All available options are defined in pretrain_config.py, and checkpoints along with the dictionary are saved to the run directory. When GPU memory is limited, increase training.update_freq to accumulate gradients while keeping the effective batch size n_gpu * training.batch_size * training.update_freq.
