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.

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.

NEAT-POCKET: Pocket-Conditioned Autoregressive 3D Molecular Generation with a Neighborhood-Guided Set Transformer

NEAT-POCKET is a pocket‑conditioned extension of the autoregressive NEAT model that generates 3D molecules atom by atom within protein binding pockets, maintaining atom permutation invariance and explicitly modeling hydrogen atoms. It outperforms existing baselines on the CrossDocked and SPINDR datasets, achieving competitive structure‑based generation performance while sampling significantly faster. The model also supports pocket‑conditioned fragment completion, a capability directly useful for lead optimization and scaffold elaboration in drug design.

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.
