Background: Drug discovery and development is the extremely costly and time-consuming process of identifying new molecules that can interact with a biomarker target to interrupt the disease pathway of interest. In addition to binding the target, a drug candidate needs to satisfy multiple properties affecting absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion, and toxicity (ADMET). Artificial intelligence approaches provide an opportunity to improve each step of the drug discovery and development process, in which the first question faced by us is how a molecule can be informatively represented such that the in-silico solutions are optimized.

Artificial intelligence algorithms have recently showed promising potential to expedite the drug design process. However, existing methods adopt multi-objective approaches which limits the number of objectives.
