1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Self-supervised learning plays an important role in molecular representation learning because labeled molecular data are usually limited in many tasks, such as chemical property prediction and virtual screening. However, most existing molecular pre-training methods focus on one modality of molecular data, and the complementary information of two important modalities, SMILES and graph, is not fully explored. In this study, we propose an effective multi-modality self-supervised learning framework for molecular SMILES and graph. Specifically, SMILES data and graph data are first tokenized so that they can be processed by a unified Transformer-based backbone network, which is trained by a masked reconstruction strategy. In addition, we introduce a specialized non-overlapping masking strategy to encourage fine-grained interaction between these two modalities. Experimental results show that our framework achieves state-of-the-art performance in a series of molecular property prediction tasks, and a detailed ablation study demonstrates efficacy of the multi-modality framework and the masking strategy.
