Requirements

For small datasets (~1000 molecules), it is possible to train models within a few minutes on a standard laptop with CPUs only. However, for larger datasets and larger chemprop models, we recommend using a GPU for significantly faster training.

To use chemprop with GPUs, you will need:

• cuda >= 8.0

• cuDNN

Chemprop is uses Python 3.6+ and all models are built with PyTorch. See Installation for details on how to install Chemprop and its dependencies.
