Graph neural network predicts absorption spectra in polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, suggesting a faster analysis method.

The research aims to develop a predictive framework for estimating infrared spectra of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons using graph neural networks.
Developed a graph neural network framework for spectral prediction.
Evaluated four GNN architectures: GCN, GAT, MPNN, and AFP.
Trained AFP model with various spectral distance metrics as loss functions.
The AFP model predicts PAH absorption spectra up to 10,000 times faster than traditional methods.
Best performance achieved for PAHs with 20-40 carbon atoms.
Jensen-Shannon divergence provided the most accurate results among loss functions.

Tang et al. (2026) studied this question.
