  6. ■ The main research objective is to answer the following

    questions: 1. What is the current state-of-the-art single-step retrosynthesis approach? 2. Are the recent frequent improvements actually significant? 3. How easy/difficult is it to re-produce the reported results? Chem-Bio Informatics Society (CBI) Annual Meeting 2022, Tokyo, Japan Research Objective 7 [1] (2020, Dai, H. et al.): https://doi.org/10.48550/arXiv.2001.01408. [2] (2021, Somnath, V.R. et al.): https://doi.org/10.48550/arXiv.2006.07038. [3] (2022, Ucak, U.V. et al.): https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-022-28857-w. [4] (2022, Zhong, Z. et al.): https://doi.org/10.1039/d2sc02763a. Experiments on the benchmark datasets show a significant 8.1% improvement over existing state-of-the-art methods in top-one accuracy. [1] Our model achieves a top-1 accuracy of 53.7%, outperforming previous template-free and semi-template-based methods. [2] The overall accuracy with singly and doubly mutated predictions was 61.6%, outperforming current state-of-the-art methods. [3] We compare the proposed R-SMILES with various state-of-the-art baselines and show that it significantly outperforms them all, demonstrating the superiority of the proposed method. [4]

    Accuracy 10 All of the evaluated approaches under-delivered on the Top-N Accuracy reported in the original publication. Because of the faulty performance, the AT and RetroTRAE Top-N accuracy values are considered as not representative. The reported LocalRetro Top-N accuracy considered isomers as identical chemical compounds.

    Accuracy 11 ■ Even though the improvements are statistically significant (0.01 < p < 0.05) according to the Wilcoxon Signed-rank Test, they are consistently lower than reported in the original publications. ■ The final ranking of the evaluated single-step retrosynthesis approaches in terms of Top-1 Accuracy is as follows: 1. R-SMILES: 53.6 ± 0.558 → -2.7 2. LocalRetro: 52.6 ± 0.650 → -0.8 3. GLN: 51.7 ± 0.691 → -0.8 4. GraphRetro: 51.2 ± 0.583 → -2.5

    Uniqueness and Chemical Validity Rate 12 The GraphRetro approach is limited as it consistently generates around 10 suggestions even for higher beam sizes.
  11. Chem-Bio Informatics Society (CBI) Annual Meeting 2022, Tokyo, Japan Conclusion

    14 1. What is the current state-of-the-art for single-step retrosynthesis? ■ In the case of template-free approaches and overall, the state-of-the-art approach is R-SMILES. ■ In the case of template-based approaches, the state-of-the-art approach is LocalRetro. 3. How easy/difficult is it to re-produce the reported results? ■ Template-free single-step retrosynthesis approaches are significantly more complex to implement and train successfully than template-based approaches. 2. Are the recent improvements actually significant? ■ The limited number of samples indicates that the improvements are statistically significant (0.01 < p < 0.05) according to the Wilcoxon Signed-rank Test, but consistently lower than reported in the original publications. Conclusion: The recently observed incremental improvements represent optimization of incomplete ideas rather than significant progress, and the field of computer-assisted single-step retrosynthesis remains stagnant, with performances insufficient for a practically standalone product.
