Does this skill support Graph Neural Networks (GNNs)?

Yes, it provides built-in implementations for GCN, GAT, MPNN, and other graph-based models specifically designed for molecular analysis.

What data formats can the DeepChem skill handle?

It supports various formats including SMILES strings, SDF files, FASTA protein sequences, and standard tabular data (CSV/JSON).

What is the primary use of the DeepChem skill?

It is used to apply machine learning to chemical and biological data, specifically for molecular property prediction, drug discovery, and materials science.

Why is ScaffoldSplitter important in this skill?

ScaffoldSplitter is critical in cheminformatics to ensure that molecules with similar core structures are not split between training and test sets, which prevents data leakage and over-optimistic results.

Can I use pretrained models with this skill?

Yes, it supports transfer learning using pretrained models like ChemBERTa and GROVER, which are highly effective for improving performance on small experimental datasets.
