Boltzmann-Expected Molecular Design with Decoupled Annealing Flows

arXiv:2607. 19519v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Most 3D properties relevant to molecular design, including free energies and shape descriptors, are $\textit{expectations}$ over the Boltzmann distribution over 3D configurations of a molecular graph.

Fixed-Dimensional Latent Flow for Generating Variable-Size 3D Molecules

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.

Autoregressive latent diffusion for 3D molecule generation

arXiv:2607. 09277v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Three-dimensional (3D) molecule generation has been dominated by diffusion models, which achieve strong generation quality but typically require the molecular size to be specified a priori.

Do Language Models Dream of Binding Molecules? Benchmarking LLMs under Spatial Constraints

arXiv:2607. 18144v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Structure-based drug design (SBDD) leverages the 3D structure of protein targets, often complemented by other spatial constraints, to generate candidate binding molecules.

Smoothing Dark Areas in Molecular Latent Diffusion

arXiv:2606. 13955v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Latent diffusion is a promising framework for scalable 3D molecular generation, but it requires a latent space that remains smooth, valid, and navigable beyond posterior samples.

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.
