Sustainable aviation fuels (SAFs) are crucial for addressing carbon emissions in the aviation industry. With a focus on SAFs, the research aims to establish a quantitative structure-property relationship for polycyclic hydrocarbons (PCHCs) and their net heat of combustion (NHOC) using the innovative approach of machine…

Terminally labeled DNA oligonucleotides have wide applications in modern biology and biotechnological applications. It has been observed that the fluorescent intensity of light released from these fluorescent labels is heavily influenced by the terminal sequence of nucleotides. Recent studies have assayed and published…

Rapid generation and evaluation of diverse synthesis pathways play a critical role in exploring a broader chemical space and identifying potent drug candidates. Drug discovery often relies on laborintensive manual processes for retro synthetic route finding, resulting in challenges related to scalability and…

Computer-Assisted Synthesis Programs are increasingly employed by organic chemists. Often, these tools combine neural networks for policy prediction with heuristic search algorithms. We propose two novel enhancements, which we call eUCT and dUCT, to the Monte Carlo tree search (MCTS) algorithm. The enhancements were…

The sunlight-driven reduction of CO2 into fuels and platform chemicals is a promising approach to enable a circular economy. However, established optimisation approaches are poorly suited to multi-variable multi-metric photocatalytic systems because they aim to optimise one performance metric while sacrificing the…

Alchemical absolute binding free energy (ABFE) calculations have substantial potential in drug discovery, but are often prohibitively computationally expensive. To unlock their potential, efficient automated ABFE workflows are required to reduce both computational cost and human intervention. We present a…

Identification of the most stable structure(s) of a system is a prerequisite for the calculation of any of its properties from first-principles. However, even for relatively small molecules, exhaustive explorations of the potential energy surface (PES) are severely hampered by the dimensionality bottleneck. In this…

The ongoing threat of global warming necessitates a shift towards clean energy sources to meet rising demands while reducing carbon emissions. Polymer electrolyte fuel cells (PEFCs) represent a promising technology for both mobile and stationary applications but their poor operational lifetimes and frequent faults are…

We introduce a framework for benchmarking multi-step retrosynthesis methods, i.e. route predictions, called PaRoutes. The framework consists of two sets of 10,000 synthetic routes extracted from the patent literature, a list of stock compounds, and a curated set of reactions on which one-step retrosynthesis models can…

Background: Pharmaceutical batch scheduling in multi-reactor configurations presents complex optimization challenges under operational uncertainty, yet limited research addresses how parallel processing capacity affects heuristic performance and predictive modeling. Objectives: This study investigated scheduling…

Computer-assisted design of small molecules has experienced a resurgence in academic and indus- trial interest due to the widespread use of data-driven techniques such as deep generative models. While the ability to generate molecules that fulfill required chemical properties is encouraging, the use of deep learning…

Reinforcement learning (RL) is a powerful and flexible paradigm for searching for solutions in high-dimensional action spaces. However, bridging the gap between playing computer games with thousands of simulated episodes and solving real scientific problems with complex and involved environments (up to actual…
