It is expensive and time consuming to measure soil adsorption coefficient (logKoc) of compounds using traditional methods, and some existing models show lower accuracies. To solve these problems, a deep learning (DL) method based on undirected graph recursive neural network (UG-RNN) is proposed in this paper. Firstly, the structures of molecules are represented by directed acyclic graphs (DAG) using RNN model; after that when a number of such neural networks are bundled together, they form a multi-level and weight sharing deep neural network to extract the features of molecules; Third, logKoc values of compounds have been predicted using back-propagation neural network. The experimental results show that the UG-RNN model achieves a better prediction effect than some shallow models. After five-fold cross validation, the root mean square error (RMSE) value is 0.46, the average absolute error (AAE) value is 0.35, and the square correlation coefficient ( R 2 ) value is 0.86.
