Extracting Chemical Reactions Through Natural Language Processing and State Machines
3:01:21 - 3:09:56 (08:35)
In a recent scientific paper, natural language processing was used to extract details about chemical reactions and the compounds involved, which were then used to create a program in a chemical language that could be interpreted by a chemical computer to produce a state machine that could turn molecules from one state to another. The technology has the potential to revolutionize how we develop new drugs with only a few hundred million molecules available for use.
