| Summary: | Molecular spectroscopy studies the interaction of molecules with electromagnetic radiation, and interpreting the resultant spectra is invaluable for deducing the molecular structures. However, predicting the molecular structure from spectroscopic data is a strenuous task that requires highly specific domain knowledge. DeepSPInN is a deep reinforcement learning method that predicts the molecular structure when given infrared and

C nuclear magnetic resonance spectra by formulating the molecular structure prediction problem as a Markov decision process (MDP) and employs Monte-Carlo tree search to explore and choose the actions in the formulated MDP. On the QM9 dataset, DeepSPInN is able to predict the correct molecular structure for 91.5% of the input spectra in an average time of 77 seconds for molecules with less than 10 heavy atoms. This study is the first of its kind that uses only infrared and

C nuclear magnetic resonance spectra for molecular structure prediction without referring to any pre-existing spectral databases or molecular fragment knowledge bases, and is a leap forward in automated molecular spectral analysis. |
