AbstractDiscovering new molecules that have desired properties will address critical technological challenges ranging from energy storage to drug development. The traditional trial-and-error approach of creating and testing molecules is expensive, inefficient, and time-consuming. Likewise, it is too computationally expensive to use only quantum mechanical calculations to adequately screen the vast space of possible molecules for desired properties. In contrast, generative modeling based upon machine lea
