This thesis explores the integration of contrastive learning into REINVENT, AstraZeneca’s in-house generative model for molecular design, with the aim of improving the model’s understanding of chemical equivalence between different SMILESrepresentations of the same compound. To this end, a contrastive learning framework was developed, incorporating SMILES-based data augmentation techniques such as enumeration and subgraphing. The framework was evaluated on three datasets: a proprietary baseline derived from ChEMBL35, and the publicly available MOSES and GuacaMol datasets. To assess the impact of architectural design on performance, multiple model architectures were investigated, including a newly introduced intermediate architecture. Results indicate that the intermediate architecture consistently achieves higher validity across all datasets, but tends to reduce novelty. Furthermore, using multiple augmentation strategies improved the model’s ability to generate chemically diverse and novel compounds, as measured by metrics such as novelty and Fréchet ChemNet Distance (FCD). These findings suggest that contrastive learning can offer measurable benefits in de novo molecule generation, although its effectiveness may depend heavily on architecture and dataset-specific tuning.
