Pesticides benefit agriculture by increasing crop yield, quality, and security. However, pesticides may inadvertently harm bees, which are agriculturally and ecologically vital as pollinators. The development of new pesticides---driven by pest resistance to and demands to reduce negative environmental impacts of…

Pesticides benefit agriculture by increasing crop yield, quality, and security. However, pesticides may inadvertently harm bees, which are valuable as pollinators. Thus, candidate pesticides in development pipelines must be assessed for toxicity to bees. Leveraging a data set of 382 molecules with toxicity labels from…

Chemical reactions typically follow mechanistic templates and hence fall into a manageable number of clearly distinguishable classes that usually labeled by names of chemists who discovered or explored them. These ``named reactions'' form the core of reaction ontologies and are associated with specific synthetic…

We present here an open-source Julia library for the topological identification of crystalline materials, with algorithmic and computational improvements over the previously available software in the field, resulting in a speed increase of one order of magnitude. This new algorithm and implementation can therefore be…

Chemical structure generators are used in cheminformatics to produce or enumerate virtual molecules based on a set of boundary conditions. The result can then be tested for properties of interest, such as adherence to measured data or for their suitability as drugs. The starting point can be a potentially fuzzy set of…

Computational methods for predictive modeling have been increasingly utilized in the early stages of drug discovery to supplement high-throughput screening. The advent of highly efficient and complex machine learning architectures necessitates new methods of collating the plethora of topological, geometrical, and…

Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations are used in diverse scientific and engineering fields such as drug discovery, materials design, separations, biological systems, and reaction engineering. These simulations generate highly complex datasets that capture the 3D spatial positions, dynamics, and interactions of thousands…

Genetic Algorithms are a powerful method to solve optimization problems with complex cost functions over vast search spaces that rely in particular on recombining parts of previous solutions. Crossover operators play a crucial role in this context. Here, we describe a large class of these operators designed for…

Associative classification mining (ACM) integrating association rule mining and classification has become a significant tool for knowledge discovery, especially in the chemical domain. Its major advantage is providing high accuracy as well as chemically interpretable models. Additionally, it is able to find…

Ensuring the trustworthiness of machine learning (ML) models in high-stake applications is crucial. One such application is predicting anti-cancer drug sensitivity, where ML models are built with the final goal of integrating them into treatment recommendation systems for personalized medicine. Here, we propose a…

SynTemp is a framework designed to extract and hierarchically cluster reaction templates from large-scale reaction data repositories. Reaction templates are partial Imaginary Transition State graphs representing the reaction center as well as surrounding context. These graphs are equivalent to Double Pushout graph…

Diversity and properties of ring systems contained in small molecules are of high interest for applications such as drug discovery or material sciences. In the present work we extract, analyse and classify ring systems found in small molecule compounds of open access databases such as PubChem, ChEMBL, DrugCentral…

Algorithms are presented for performing a topological analysis of an arbitrary function, evaluated on an arbitrary grid of points. These algorithms work strictly by post-processing the data and require no additional function evaluations. This is achieved by connecting the grid points with a neighbourhood graph…

Curried functions provide a systematic way of transforming multi-argument functions into nested singleargument functions. This transformation allows partial application and supports many central principles of functional programming. Their extension, called curried 𝑘-ary functions, naturally generalizes the familiar…
