Fast and Accurate Prediction of Refractive Index of Organic Liquids with Graph Machines.

ABSTRACT: The refractive index (RI) of liquids is a key physical property of molecular compounds and materials. In addition to its ubiquitous role in physics, it is also exploited to impart specific optical properties (transparency, opacity, and gloss) to materials and various end-use products. Since few methods exist to accurately estimate this property, we have designed a graph machine model (GMM) capable of predicting the RI of liquid organic compounds containing up to 16 different types of atoms and effective in discriminating between stereoisomers. Using 8267 carefully checked RI values from the literature and the corresponding 2D organic structures, the GMM provides a training root mean square relative error of less than 0.5%, i.e., an RMSE of 0.004 for the estimation of the refractive index o
