SpikingJelly: An open-source machine learning infrastructure platform for spike-based intelligence.

ABSTRACT: Spiking neural networks (SNNs) aim to realize brain-inspired intelligence on neuromorphic chips with high energy efficiency by introducing neural dynamics and spike properties. As the emerging spiking deep learning paradigm attracts increasing interest, traditional programming frameworks cannot meet the demands of the automatic differentiation, parallel computation acceleration, and high integration of processing neuromorphic datasets and deployment. In this work, we present the SpikingJelly framework to address the aforementioned dilemma. We contribute a full-stack toolkit for preprocessing neuromorphic datasets, building deep SNNs, optimizing their parameters, and deploying SNNs on neuromorphic chips. Compared to existing methods, the training of deep SNNs can be accelerated 11×, and the superior extensibility and flexibility of SpikingJelly enable users to accelerate custom models at low costs through multilevel inheritance and semiautomatic code generation. SpikingJelly paves the way for synthesizing truly energy-efficient SNN-based machine intelligence systems, which will enrich the ecology of neuromorphic computing.

Project description:Machine learning is quickly becoming integral to drug discovery pipelines, particularly quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) and absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion (ADME) tasks. Graph Convolutional Network (GCN) models have proven especially promising due to their inherent ability to model molecular structures using graph-based representations. However, maximizing the potential of such models in practice is challenging, as companies prioritize data privacy and security over collaboration initiatives to improve model performance and robustness. kMoL is an open-source machine learning library with integrated federated learning capabilities developed to address such challenges. Its key features include state-of-the-art model architectures, Bayesian optimization, explainability, and federated learning mechanisms. It demonstrates extensive customization possibilities, advanced security features, straightforward implementation of user-specific models, and high adaptability to custom datasets without additional programming requirements. kMoL is evaluated through locally trained benchmark settings and distributed federated learning experiments using various datasets to assess the features and flexibility of the library, as well as the ability to facilitate fast and practical experimentation. Additionally, results of these experiments provide further insights into the performance trade-offs associated with federated learning strategies, presenting valuable guidance for deploying machine learning models in a privacy-preserving manner within drug discovery pipelines. kMoL is available on GitHub at https://github.com/elix-tech/kmol .Scientific contribution The primary scientific contribution of this research project is the introduction and evaluation of kMoL, an open-source machine learning library with integrated federated learning capabilities.

Project description:BackgroundThe logarithmic acid dissociation constant pKa reflects the ionization of a chemical, which affects lipophilicity, solubility, protein binding, and ability to pass through the plasma membrane. Thus, pKa affects chemical absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion, and toxicity properties. Multiple proprietary software packages exist for the prediction of pKa, but to the best of our knowledge no free and open-source programs exist for this purpose. Using a freely available data set and three machine learning approaches, we developed open-source models for pKa prediction.MethodsThe experimental strongest acidic and strongest basic pKa values in water for 7912 chemicals were obtained from DataWarrior, a freely available software package. Chemical structures were curated and standardized for quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) modeling using KNIME, and a subset comprising 79% of the initial set was used for modeling. To evaluate different approaches to modeling, several datasets were constructed based on different processing of chemical structures with acidic and/or basic pKas. Continuous molecular descriptors, binary fingerprints, and fragment counts were generated using PaDEL, and pKa prediction models were created using three machine learning methods, (1) support vector machines (SVM) combined with k-nearest neighbors (kNN), (2) extreme gradient boosting (XGB) and (3) deep neural networks (DNN).ResultsThe three methods delivered comparable performances on the training and test sets with a root-mean-squared error (RMSE) around 1.5 and a coefficient of determination (R2) around 0.80. Two commercial pKa predictors from ACD/Labs and ChemAxon were used to benchmark the three best models developed in this work, and performance of our models compared favorably to the commercial products.ConclusionsThis work provides multiple QSAR models to predict the strongest acidic and strongest basic pKas of chemicals, built using publicly available data, and provided as free and open-source software on GitHub.
