BioChemInsight: An Open-Source Toolkit for Automated Identification and Recognition of Optical Chemical Structures and Activity Data in Scientific Publications

Automated extraction of chemical structures and their bioactivity data is crucial for accelerating drug discovery and enabling data-driven pharmaceutical research. Existing optical chemical structure recognition (OCSR) tools fail to autonomously associate molecular structures with their bioactivity profiles, creating a critical bottleneck in structure-activity relationship (SAR) analysis. Here, we present BioChemInsight, an open-source pipeline that integrates: (1) DECIMER Segmentation and MolVec for chemical structure recognition, (2) Qwen2.5-VL-32B for compound identifier association, and (3) PaddleOCR with Gemini-2.0-flash for bioactivity extraction and unit normalization. We evaluated the performance of BioChemInsight on 25 patents and 17 articles. BioChemInsight achieved 95% accuracy for tabular patent data (structure/identifier recognition), with lower accuracy in non-tabular patents (~80% structures, ~75% identifiers), plus 92.2 % bioactivity extraction accuracy. For articles, it attained >99% identifiers and 78-80% structure accuracy in non-tabular formats, plus 97.4% bioactivity extraction accuracy. The system generates ready-to-use SAR datasets, reducing data preprocessing time from weeks to hours while enabling applications in high-throughput screening and ML-driven drug design (https://github.com/dahuilangda/BioChemInsight).
