arXiv:2606. 03057v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly used for molecular tasks, but it remains unclear which molecular representation to use.
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.
arXiv:2607. 03007v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Recent advances in molecular large language models have led to strong performance on molecular understanding and generation tasks, yet these gains often come without reliable structural grounding.
Large language models (LLMs) are widely applied across chemical tasks, such as molecular property prediction, which underpins drug discovery. Molecular LLMs represent a molecule through several modalities, notably a 1D SMILES sequence or a 2D molecular graph.
arXiv:2608. 03855v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Transformer models have revolutionized natural language processing (NLP), and text-based molecular representations like SMILES have successfully extended these architectures to chemistry.
arXiv:2608. 10480v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) are widely applied across chemical tasks, such as molecular property prediction, which underpins drug discovery.
arXiv:2606. 12113v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Transformer-based language models for SMILES strings suffer from a locality gap: standard character-level tokenization fragments chemically meaningful motifs, forcing models to repeatedly learn local syntax at the expense of long-range dependencies.
arXiv:2606. 03660v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models are increasingly used as chemistry assistants, yet most chemistry benchmarks still score only final answers.
arXiv:2605. 16823v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Large language models succeed by combining large-scale pretraining with meaningful discrete tokens.
arXiv:2603. 25062v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Autoregressive molecular models assign probability to molecular serializations even though chemical identity is invariant to serialization.
arXiv:2607. 02140v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Chemical language models (CLMs) are trained with linearized representations such as SMILES, yet it remains unclear which chemically meaningful substructures they encode.
arXiv:2602. 02320v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Molecular function is largely determined by structure.
arXiv:2607. 19044v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Leveraging large language models (LLMs) for molecular generation has shown remarkable potential in chemical and drug design.
