Toward Controllable Catalyst Inverse Design via Large-Scale Autoregressive Pretraining

arXiv:2606. 17445v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Inverse design of heterogeneous catalysts remains challenging because catalyst surfaces exhibit substantial structural complexity with coupled surface-adsorbate interactions across a vast chemical space that is difficult to explore efficiently through conventional screening alone.

CatRetriever: Contrastive Representation Learning for Slab-to-Bulk Retrieval in Generative Catalyst Discovery

arXiv:2607. 11712v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Inverse design is an emerging data-driven paradigm for efficiently navigating vast chemical spaces to discover new materials with targeted properties, and in the context of heterogeneous catalysis, surface generative models have recently advanced this goal by directly generating catalyst surface-adsorbate structures.

Chemical filters for ultra-high-throughput materials screening and generation

Generative artificial intelligence is rapidly transforming materials design by enabling de novo exploration of immense chemical spaces. Yet a large proportion of AI-generated compositions remain implausible, violating established chemical principles, which limits the reliability and interpretability of generative materials design.

Reaction-network reasoning with frontier models for experimentally confirmed catalyst-selectivity hypotheses

arXiv:2607. 08003v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Catalysts are essential for sustainable chemical manufacturing, yet discovering novel architectures remains a bottleneck dominated by trial-and-error experimentation and computationally intensive screening.

Physics-Guided Generative AI for Property-Targeted 3D Porous Media Design

arXiv:2607. 24274v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Inverse design of three-dimensional porous media is central to applications in filtration, catalysis, energy storage, fuel cells, thermal management, and biomedical scaffolds, but remains challenging because many distinct pore geometries can share similar porosity or permeability while small structural changes can strongly affect transport behaviour.

Reaction-Transformation-Aware Flow Matching for Generalizable Transition State Generation

arXiv:2608. 14076v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Transition-state (TS) structures define the energetic barriers and mechanistic pathways of elementary chemical reactions, yet their identification remains computationally demanding because conventional saddle-point searches require expensive quantum-mechanical calculations.

SynLaD: Latent Diffusion for Generating Synthesizable Molecules Conditioned on 3D Pharmacophore Profiles

arXiv:2607. 01105v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We present SynLaD, a latent diffusion framework for small-molecule generation that unifies ligand-based drug design objectives (what to make) with synthetic accessibility (how to make it).
