摘要

The scarcity of experimental training data restricts the integration of machine learning into catalysis research. Here, we report on the effectiveness of graph convolutional network (GCN) models pretrained on a molecular topological index, which is not used in typical organic synthesis, for estimating the catalytic activity, a task that usually requires high levels of human expertise. For pretraining, we used custom-tailored virtual molecular databases that can be readily constructed using either a systematic generation method or a molecular generator developed in our group. Although 94%–99% of the employed virtual molecules are unregistered in the PubChem database, the resulting pretrained GCN models improve the prediction of catalytic activity for real-world organic photosensitizers. The results demonstrate the efficiency of the present transfer-learning strategy, which leverages readily obtainable information from self-generated virtual molecules.
