Abstract

Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) have emerged as a prominent class of data-driven methods for molecular property prediction. However, a key limitation of typical GNN models is their inability to quantify uncertainties in the predictions. This capability is crucial for ensuring the trustworthy use and deployment of models in downstream tasks. To that end, we introduce AutoGNNUQ, an automated uncertainty quantification (UQ) approach for molecular property prediction. AutoGNNUQ leverages architecture search to generate an ensemble of high-performing GNNs, enabling the estimation of predictive uncertainties. Our approach employs variance decomposition to separate data (aleatoric) and model (epistemic) uncertainties, providing valuable insights for reducing them. In our computational experiments, we demonstrate that AutoGNNUQ outperforms existing UQ methods in terms of both prediction accuracy and UQ performance on multiple benchmark datasets, and generalizes well to out-of-distribution datasets. Additionally, we utilize t-SNE visualization to explore correlations between molecular features and uncertainty, offering insight for dataset improvement. AutoGNNUQ has broad applicability in domains such as drug discovery and materials science, where accurate uncertainty quantification is crucial for decision-making.

利用图神经结构搜索进行分子特性预测的不确定性量化
图神经网络(GNN)已成为一类重要的数据驱动型分子特性预测方法。然而,典型 GNN 模型的一个主要局限是无法量化预测中的不确定性。这种能力对于确保在下游任务中可靠地使用和部署模型至关重要。为此,我们推出了用于分子特性预测的自动不确定性量化(UQ)方法 AutoGNNUQ。AutoGNNUQ 利用架构搜索生成高性能 GNN 集合,从而实现预测不确定性的估计。我们的方法采用方差分解法来分离数据不确定性和模型不确定性,为减少不确定性提供了宝贵的见解。在我们的计算实验中,我们证明了在多个基准数据集上,AutoGNNUQ 在预测准确性和 UQ 性能方面都优于现有的 UQ 方法,并能很好地泛化到分布外数据集。此外,我们还利用 t-SNE 可视化技术探索了分子特征与不确定性之间的相关性,为数据集的改进提供了启示。AutoGNNUQ 在药物发现和材料科学等领域具有广泛的适用性,在这些领域,准确的不确定性量化对决策至关重要。
