AIRI: Predicting Retention Indices and Their Uncertainties Using Artificial Intelligence.

The Kováts retention index (RI) is a quantity measured using gas chromatography and is commonly used in the identification of chemical structures. Creating libraries of observed RI values is a laborious task, so we explore the use of a deep neural network for predicting RI values from structure for standard semipolar columns. This network generated predictions with a mean absolute error of 15.
