Diffusion models have seen wide adoption for 3D molecular generation, yet they offer no principled signal of when a generated molecule is likely to be of low quality. We propose a post-hoc method for estimating per-sample uncertainty in pretrained molecular diffusion models.
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.

Diffusion models represent a leading paradigm for graph generation, with notable impact in domains such as molecular design. Yet, scaling these models to large graphs remains an open problem.
