Neural tensor factorization cuts ADMET predictions from ~340 years to under 10 minutes

A researcher needed ADMET predictions over a 20+ trillion make-on-demand molecule library; Chemeleon GNN estimated 340 years on one GPU. Using neural synthon factorization (SynFactor), distilling a full-molecule property model into a cached rank-16 CP factorization, runtime dropped to under 10 minutes.

Benchmarks show strong agreement with the teacher model across 18 outputs (LogD, hERG, clearance, Caco-2, CYP enzymes), with Spearman ρ mostly 0.7-0.96. The project is open-sourced on GitHub under MIT license.
