# PYTDC

## Overview

PyTDC is an open-science platform providing AI-ready datasets and benchmarks for drug discovery and development. Access curated datasets spanning the entire therapeutics pipeline with standardized evaluation metrics and meaningful data splits, organized into three categories: single-instance prediction (molecular/protein properties), multi-instance prediction (drug-target interactions, DDI), and generation (molecule generation, retrosynthesis).

## When to Use This Skill

This skill should be used when:
- Working with drug discovery or therapeutic ML datasets
- Benchmarking machine learning models on standardized pharmaceutical tasks
- Predicting molecular properties (ADME, toxicity, bioactivity)
- Predicting drug-target or drug-drug interactions
- Generating novel molecules with desired properties
- Accessing curated datasets with proper train/test splits (scaffold, cold-split)
- Using molecular oracles for property optimization

## Installation & Setup

Install PyTDC using pip:

```bash
uv pip install PyTDC
```

To upgrade to the latest version:

```bash
uv pip install PyTDC --upgrade
```

Core dependencies (automatically installed):
- numpy, pandas, tqdm, seaborn, scikit_learn, fuzzywuzzy

Additional packages are installed automatically as needed for specific features.

## Quick Start

The basic pattern for accessing any TDC dataset follows this structure:

```python
from tdc.<problem> import <Task>
data = <Task>(name='<Dataset>')
split = data.get_split(method='scaffold', seed=1, frac=[0.7, 0.1, 0.2])
df = data.get_data(format='df')
```

Where:
- `<problem>`: One of `single_pred`, `multi_pred`, or `generation`
- `<Task>`: Specific task category (e.g., ADME, DTI, MolGen)
- `<Dataset>`: Dataset name within that task

**Example - Loading ADME data:**

```python
from tdc.single_pred import ADME
data = ADME(name='Caco2_Wang')
split = data.get_split(method='scaffold')
# PYTDC
```

## Single-Instance Prediction Tasks

Single-instance prediction involves forecasting properties of individual biomedical entities (molecules, proteins, etc.).

### Available Task Categories

#### 1. ADME (Absorption, Distribution, Metabolism, Excretion)

Predict pharmacokinetic properties of drug molecules.

```python
from tdc.single_pred import ADME
data = ADME(name='Caco2_Wang')  # Intestinal permeability
# PYTDC
```

**Common ADME datasets:**
- Caco2 - Intestinal permeability
- HIA - Human intestinal absorption

## Generation Tasks

Generation tasks involve creating novel biomedical entities with desired properties.

### 1. Molecular Generation (MolGen)

Generate diverse, novel molecules with desirable chemical properties.

```python
from tdc.generation import MolGen
data = MolGen(name='ChEMBL_V29')
split = data.get_split()
```

Use with oracles to optimize for specific properties:

```python
from tdc import Oracle
oracle = Oracle(name='GSK3B')
score = oracle('CC(C)Cc1ccc(cc1)C(C)C(O)=O')  # Evaluate SMILES
```

See `references/oracles.md` for all available oracle functions.

### 2. Retrosynthesis (RetroSyn)

Predict reactants needed to synthesize a target molecule.

```python
from tdc.generation import RetroSyn
data = RetroSyn(name='USPTO')
split = data.get_split()
```

### 3. Paired Molecule Generation

Generate molecule pairs (e.g., prodrug-drug pairs).

```python
from tdc.generation import PairMolGen
data = PairMolGen(name='Prodrug')
```

For detailed oracle documentation and molecular generation workflows, refer to `references/oracles.md` and `scripts/molecular_generation.py`.

## Benchmark Groups

Benchmark groups provide curated collections of related datasets for systematic model evaluation.

### ADMET Benchmark Group

```python
from tdc.benchmark_group import admet_group
group = admet_group(path='data/')

# PYTDC
benchmark = group.get('Caco2_Wang')
predictions = {}

for seed in [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]:
    train, valid = benchmark['train'], benchmark['valid']
    # Train model here
    predictions[seed] = model.predict(benchmark['test'])

# PYTDC
results = group.evaluate(predictions)
```

**ADMET Group includes 22 datasets** covering absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion, and toxicity.

### Other Benchmark Groups

Available benchmark groups include collections for:
- ADMET properties
- Drug-target interactions
- Drug combination prediction
- And more specialized therapeutic tasks

For benchmark evaluation workflows, see `scripts/benchmark_evaluation.py`.

## Data Functions

TDC provides comprehensive data processing utilities organized into four categories.

### 1. Dataset Splits

Retrieve train/validation/test partitions with various strategies:

```python
# PYTDC
split = data.get_split(method='scaffold', seed=1, frac=[0.7, 0.1, 0.2])

# PYTDC
split = data.get_split(method='random', seed=42, frac=[0.8, 0.1, 0.1])

# PYTDC
split = data.get_split(method='cold_drug', seed=1)  # Unseen drugs in test
split = data.get_split(method='cold_target', seed=1)  # Unseen targets in test
```

**Available split strategies:**
- `random`: Random shuffling
- `scaffold`: Scaffold-based (for chemical diversity)
- `cold_drug`, `cold_target`, `cold_drug_target`: For DTI tasks
- `temporal`: Time-based splits for temporal datasets

### 2. Model Evaluation

Use standardized metrics for evaluation:

```python
from tdc import Evaluator

# PYTDC
evaluator = Evaluator(name='ROC-AUC')
score = evaluator(y_true, y_pred)

# PYTDC
evaluator = Evaluator(name='RMSE')
score = evaluator(y_true, y_pred)
```

**Available metrics:** ROC-AUC, PR-AUC, F1, Accuracy, RMSE, MAE, R2, Spearman, Pearson, and more.

### 3. Data Processing

TDC provides 11 key processing utilities:

```python
from tdc.chem_utils import MolConvert

# PYTDC
converter = MolConvert(src='SMILES', dst='PyG')
pyg_graph = converter('CC(C)Cc1ccc(cc1)C(C)C(O)=O')
```

**Processing utilities include:**
- Molecule format conversion (SMILES, SELFIES, PyG, DGL, ECFP, etc.)
- Molecule filters (PAINS, drug-likeness)
- Label binarization and unit conversion
- Data balancing (over/under-sampling)
- Negative sampling for pair data
- Graph transformation
- Entity retrieval (CID to SMILES, UniProt to sequence)

For comprehensive utilities documentation, see `references/utilities.md`.

### 4. Molecule Generation Oracles

TDC provides 17+ oracle functions for molecular optimization:

```python
from tdc import Oracle

# PYTDC
oracle = Oracle(name='DRD2')
score = oracle('CC(C)Cc1ccc(cc1)C(C)C(O)=O')

# PYTDC
oracle = Oracle(name='JNK3')
scores = oracle(['SMILES1', 'SMILES2', 'SMILES3'])
```

For complete oracle documentation, see `references/oracles.md`.
