SSM_20M

SSM_20M is a mamba-based model designed for molecular generation tasks. This model was trained using the code available at https://github.com/Anri-Lombard/Mamba-SAFE . It was trained from scratch on the MOSES dataset, which has been converted from SMILES to the SAFE (SMILES Augmented For Encoding) format to enhance molecular representation for machine learning applications. Leveraging the efficiency of the Mamba framework, SSM_20M achieves performance comparable to transformer-based alternatives such as SAFE_20M .

Evaluation Results

SSM_20M demonstrates performance on par with transformer-based models in molecular generation tasks, ensuring both validity and diversity of the generated molecular structures.

Model Description

SSM_20M utilizes the Mamba framework, which offers linear-time sequence modeling with selective state spaces, to generate valid and diverse molecular structures. By converting the MOSES dataset from SMILES to SAFE format, the model benefits from improved molecular encoding, facilitating better performance in various applications such as:

• Drug Discovery: Identifying potential drug candidates with desirable properties.
• Materials Science: Designing new materials with specific characteristics.
• Chemical Engineering: Innovating chemical processes and compounds.
