A de novo molecular generation method using latent vector based generative adversarial network

Abstract Deep learning methods applied to drug discovery have been used to generate novel structures. In this study, we propose a new deep learning architecture, LatentGAN, which combines an autoencoder and a generative adversarial neural network for de novo molecular design. We applied the method i...
