Sample-Efficient Generation of Novel Photo-acid Generator Molecules using a Deep Generative Model
Photo-acid generators (PAGs) are compounds that release acids ($H^+$ ions) when exposed to light. These compounds are critical components of the photolithography processes that are used in the manufacture of semiconductor logic and memory chips. The exponential increase in the demand for semiconductors has highlighted the need for discovering novel photo-acid generators. While de novo molecule design using deep generative models has been widely employed for drug discovery and material design, its application to the creation of novel photo-acid generators poses several unique challenges, such as lack of property labels. In this paper, we highlight these challenges and propose a generative modeling approach that utilizes conditional generation from a pre-trained deep autoencoder and expert-in-the-loop techniques. The validity of the proposed approach was evaluated with the help of subject matter experts, indicating the promise of such an approach for applications beyond the creation of novel photo-acid generators.

Genetic Code: Four-Codon and Non-Four-Codon Degeneracy
In this work it is shown that 20 canonical amino acids (AAs) within genetic code appear to be a whole system with strict distinction in Genetic Code Table (GCT) into some different quantums: 20, 23, 61 amino acid molecul…
Recent applicable delivery approaches of peptide nucleic acids to the target cells
Peptide nucleic acids (PNAs) are artificial nucleic acids with a peptide backbone instead of sugar phosphate backbone of DNA or RNA. Their resistance to degradation, selectivity and greater binding affinity in comparison…
Better results with homogeneous biological macromolecules
Pure and homogeneous biological macromolecules (i.e. proteins, nucleic acids, protein-protein or protein-nucleic acid complexes, and functional assemblies such as ribosomes and viruses) are the key for consistent and rel…
