Polymer property prediction using ensemble of directed message-passing neural networks with uncertainty estimation and applicability domain analysis

  • Vidit Agrawal

摘要

This work presents a reproducible workflow that uses an ensemble of Chemprop’s Directed Message-Passing Neural Networks (D-MPNNs) for polymer property prediction, specifically the glass transition temperature (Tg). The workflow estimates epistemic uncertainty and defines an applicability domain, enabling users to identify which predictions are most reliable, prioritize data for further study, and interpret the latent D-MPNN features driving model decisions. Using a dataset of 902 polymers with SMILES representations and experimental Tg values, this work demonstrates that the D-MPNN ensemble achieves strong predictive performance (test set \(R^2 = 0.765\) R 2 = 0.765 , \(RMSE = 0.0673\) R M S E = 0.0673 ), comparable to previous studies employing classical machine learning models with carefully selected molecular descriptors.
