MolGraphBench: A Benchmark of GNN Architectures for Molecular Regression Tasks

arXiv:2602. 20573v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Molecules are often represented as SMILES strings, which can be readily converted to hand-crafted descriptors or fingerprints (FP) for molecular property prediction.

An Additive MLP-GNN Framework for Characterizing Chemical and Structural Contributions to Aqueous Solubility

arXiv:2607. 02212v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Aqueous solubility is a key property in early-stage drug discovery, but most predictive models merge physicochemical descriptors and molecular graph information into a single representation, obscuring whether a prediction is driven by global chemistry, molecular structure, or both.

Geometry-Informed Parameter-Efficient Fine-Tuning of Pre-trained Molecular GNNs for Blood-Brain Barrier Permeability Prediction

arXiv:2608. 04257v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Blood-brain barrier permeability (BBBP) prediction is a critical screening task in central nervous system drug discovery, where candidate molecules must be assessed for whether they can cross, or should be prevented from crossing, the blood-brain barrier.

GFFMERGE: Efficient Merging of Graph Neural Force Fields and Beyond

arXiv:2606. 03232v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) have revolutionized Neural Force Fields for atomistic simulations, achieving near-quantum accuracy at reduced cost, yet adapting these models to new chemical systems requires expensive retraining of foundation models.

Multimodal Molecular Representation Learning with Graph Neural Networks, Deep & Cross Networks, and SMILES Embeddings

arXiv:2607. 05736v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Molecular property prediction often relies on isolated data modalities, where continuous 3D graph neural networks (GNNs) struggle to efficiently capture long-range topological dependencies and exact macroscopic heuristics.
