Project Ariadne: Prompt-Conditioned Route Generation for Synthesis Planning

Retrosynthetic planning seeks to connect a target molecule to commercially available starting materials through a multistep route. Classical planners construct such routes by iteratively applying single-step reaction models within a search procedure; constrained variants often require specialized algorithms or architectural changes.

StepPRM-RTL: Stepwise Process-Reward Guided LLM Fine-Tuning for Enhanced RTL Synthesis

arXiv:2606. 04246v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Automatic generation of RTL code for digital hardware designs remains challenging due to long-horizon reasoning, multi-step dependencies, and strict correctness constraints in Verilog and VHDL.

An Agentic Retrobiosynthesis Framework with Learned Frontier Selection

The paper presents an agentic retrobiosynthesis framework that uses a learned frontier selection policy to guide multistep retrosynthesis in a deterministic biochemical engine. By fine‑tuning a Qwen2.5‑7B policy with LoRA, the authors achieve higher solve rates than traditional MCTS across several benchmarks, demonstrating that route‑supervised frontier selection can improve search efficiency without changing the underlying reaction model.

Strategy-first synthesis planning for complex natural products

arXiv:2608. 07454v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The total synthesis of a complex molecule is among the most demanding intellectual and experimental feats in chemistry: a chemist must plan many steps ahead for how to assemble simple building blocks into an intricate target, devise backup strategies, and anticipate procedural challenges.
