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.
