generate valid selfies

[DawnJYe]

Hello!I have a question about generating selfies.Vectors randomly sampled from a Gaussion distribution are passed through a decoder to generate selfies,which are composed of symbols defined the selfies dictionary.However,how can we ensure that these combination of symbols form valid selfies?In other words,can the generated selfies always be decoded back into SMILES? thanks very much!

@DawnJYe by construction, all SELFIES strings are valid molecules (see the original paper: https://arxiv.org/abs/1905.13741).
