Solubility Prediction

Predicting the solubility of molecules, crucial for drug development and other chemical applications, is actively being advanced through machine learning. Current research focuses on improving the accuracy and efficiency of predictive models, employing architectures like graph convolutional networks, recurrent neural networks (including LSTMs and BiLSTMs), and transformer networks, often combined for enhanced performance. A key challenge is mitigating overfitting during model training and improving interpretability to understand the underlying chemical factors influencing solubility. These advancements promise to accelerate drug discovery and materials science by streamlining experimental processes and improving the selection of candidate compounds.
