摘要
En 中文
Substructure-based representation learning has emerged as a powerful approach to featurize complex attributed graphs, with promising results in molecular property prediction (MPP). However, existing MPP methods mainly rely on manually defined rules to extract substructures. It remains an open challenge to adaptively identify meaningful substructures from numerous molecular graphs to accommodate MPP tasks. To this end, this paper proposes P rototype-based cOntrastive S ubstructure I dentifica T ion (POSIT), a self-supervised framework to autonomously discover substructural prototypes across graphs so as to guide end-to-end molecular fragmentation. During pre-training, POSIT emphasizes two key aspects of substructure identification: firstly, it imposes a soft connectivity constraint to encourage the generation of topologically meaningful substructures; secondly, it aligns resultant substructures with derived prototypes through a prototype-substructure contrastive clustering objective, ensuring attribute-based similarity within clusters. In the fine-tuning stage, a cross-scale attention mechanism is designed to integrate substructure-level information to enhance molecular representations. The effectiveness of the POSIT framework is demonstrated by experimental results from diverse real-world datasets, covering both classification and regression tasks. Moreover, visualization analysis validates the consistency of chemical priors with identified substructures.
