In this work, we propose a machine learning approach to generate novel molecules starting from a seed compound, its three-dimensional (3D) shape, and its pharmacophoric features. The pipeline draws inspiration from generative models used in image ana...
De novo drug design aims to generate novel chemical compounds with desirable chemical and pharmacological properties from scratch using computer-based methods. Recently, deep generative neural networks have become a very active research frontier in d...
