HiPoly is a polymer-native AI framework that uses a three-level hierarchical graph architecture built on the G2RINS representation to process complete polymer descriptions. It encodes stochastic inter-monomer connectivity, composition, and molecular weight directly within its architecture, enabling end-to-end workflows from experimental data to property prediction, generative design, and physics-based validation. The framework achieves state-of-the-art accuracy for thermophysical properties of multi-component polymer systems and demonstrates generative design by discovering sustainable, PFAS-free alternatives with target surface-energy properties.

The paper introduces Equivariant-Free Transformer-Autoencoded Latent Flow Matching (EF‑TALFM), a two‑stage generative framework that uses a single fixed‑dimensional latent vector to produce variable‑size 3D molecules. The first stage samples the latent vector via flow matching, and the second stage employs an autoregressive Transformer decoder that determines molecule size while generating atom types, coordinates, and chemical states. EF‑TALFM outperforms prior methods on the PCQM4Mv2 benchmark, achieving higher uniqueness, novelty, and computational throughput, and its internal ranking improves the hit rate for target HOMO–LUMO gaps while maintaining novelty.
Polymer property prediction and inverse generative design targeting desired properties are two crucial tasks in machine learning-assisted polymer design. While the former has received considerable attention, there have been limited methods developed for the latter.

PGFS++ is a synthesis‑aware reinforcement learning framework that improves molecular properties while ensuring the resulting molecules can be synthesized and remain structurally similar to the input. It builds on PGFS+ by using trainable embedding lookup tables for reaction templates and second reactants, a more effective scoring function, and a refined RL algorithm. Experiments demonstrate that PGFS++ enhances target properties and preserves high output diversity, overcoming the reward‑hacking failure mode seen in earlier versions.
