A Method for Inferring Polymers Based on Linear Regression and Integer Programming.

A novel framework has recently been proposed for designing the molecular structure of chemical compounds with a desired chemical property using both artificial neural networks and mixed integer linear programming. In this paper, we design a new method for inferring a polymer based on the framework. For this, we introduce a new way of representing a polymer as a form of monomer and define new descriptors that feature the structure of polymers.
