BiScale-GTR: Fragment-Aware Graph Transformers for Multi-Scale Molecular Representation Learning

arXiv:2604. 06336v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Fragment-level representations provide a natural way to capture recurring molecular substructures and reuse their learned representations across molecules.

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.

WEECFP-SuRGE: A Position-Aware Substructure Encoding Method for Molecular Property Prediction

WEECFP-SuRGE introduces a position‑aware substructure encoding method that combines tokenized hierarchical Morgan fingerprints with graph‑distance‑dependent rotations applied at the input and within transformer self‑attention. The approach captures local chemistry, long‑range interactions, and molecular topology without requiring external pretraining or 3‑D conformer generation. Benchmarks on MoleculeNet and the Therapeutic Data Commons ADMET datasets show competitive performance, and a reconstruction procedure correctly identifies constitutional isomers for 92.6% of a 4,200‑molecule library.

MolE-RAG: Molecular Structure-Enhanced Retrieval-Augmented Generation for Chemistry

arXiv:2606. 05693v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) have shown promise for molecular property prediction, but their ability to reason over chemical structures remains limited, as molecular representations such as SMILES differ substantially from the natural language on which LLMs are primarily trained.
