BOOM is a new benchmark for evaluating out‑of‑distribution (OOD) molecular property predictions in machine learning. It provides chemically‑informed tests across common property prediction tasks and assesses over 150 model‑task combinations. The study shows that current models, including chemical foundation models, struggle to generalize OOD, with the best model still exhibiting three times higher error than in‑distribution predictions.

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.
The paper introduces NSA-Bench, a public benchmark for predicting nano self‑assembly (NSA) between molecular pairs, framing it as a binary classification problem. It presents NSA‑Net, a multimodal learning framework that fuses graph topology, sequence semantics, and physicochemical descriptors to predict self‑assembly, achieving high ROC‑AUC scores and outperforming existing baselines. The study also demonstrates how NSA‑Net’s predictions can guide experimental formulation refinement through an NSA‑Agent case study.
