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.
The paper proposes a new framework called ensemble-conditioned guidance that reframes molecular design as an optimisation over both the modes and properties of a molecule’s conformational ensemble. It allows 3D generative models to be conditioned simultaneously on multiple axes—such as shapes, pharmacophore profiles, or protein pockets—by adaptively combining vector fields from each condition. The authors introduce adaptive symmetry learning for composable conditions across reference frames, extend the framework to support flexible-size generation, and demonstrate its effectiveness on new benchmarks and practical drug‑discovery tasks, showing improved outcomes when conditioning on additional states compared to single‑state approaches.

The paper introduces juniper, a discrete denoising diffusion model that performs compositional backmapping from coarse‑grained (CG) beads to detailed molecular graphs. By conditioning on the octanol–water partition free energy, the model generates valid and unique molecules that closely match the target free‑energy distribution for two‑bead systems. This approach enables the conversion of CG screening results into candidate atomistic molecules for further study or synthesis.

Transport-Coupled Bayesian Flows for Molecular Graph Generation (TopBF) addresses a key mismatch in existing diffusion models for molecular graph generation by eliminating the need for hard discretization during sampling. The framework generates graphs directly in continuous parameter distributions, learns graph topology via a Quasi-Wasserstein optimal‑transport coupling with geodesic costs, and enables property‑conditioned generation without retraining. Experiments on QM9 and ZINC250k show that TopBF achieves higher structural fidelity and more efficient generation compared to prior methods.
