In contrast to other works, our model can be used to address various challenging tasks, including compound property prediction. In ProGReST, the rationale is obtained along with prediction due to the model's built-in interpretability. Additionally, we introduce a new graph prototype projection to accelerate model training. Finally, we evaluate PRoGReST on a wide range of chemical datasets for molecular property prediction and perform in-depth analysis with chemical experts to evaluate obtained interpretations. Our method achieves competitive results against state-of-the-art methods.","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2210.03745v2","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2210.03745v2.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"abstracts"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"progrest-prototypical-graph-regression-soft","repo_url":"https://github.com/gmum/progrest","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":1,"mentioned_in_github":0,"framework":"pytorch","reach":null}],"tasks":[{"task_slug":"graph-regression","task_name":"Graph Regression"},{"task_slug":"molecular-property-prediction","task_name":"Molecular Property Prediction"},{"task_slug":"prediction","task_name":"Prediction"},{"task_slug":"property-prediction","task_name":"Property Prediction"},{"task_slug":"regression-1","task_name":"regression"}],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"atlas_url":"https://app.syntology.ai/?focus=2210.03745","mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
