Hypothesis-and-Refinement Learning of Organic Structures from Multimodal Spectroscopic Data

arXiv:2607. 19816v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Determining molecular structures from spectroscopic data remains fundamentally challenging because the inverse problem is intrinsically underdetermined: individual spectra are sparse, low-dimensional, and encode only partial structural evidence relative to the vast space of possible molecules.

Data Fusion and Contrastive Alignment for Unconstrained IR Molecular Structure Elucidation

arXiv:2607. 26164v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Automated molecular structure elucidation from infrared (IR) spectroscopy data has seen significant advancements in recent years, but its broad applicability is limited by a reliance on pre-determined chemical formulas provided as auxiliary model inputs.

Explainable Molecular Structure Inference from GC--MS with Diffusion Models and LLM Reranking

The paper introduces DiffGCMS, a discrete graph diffusion model that generates molecular structures directly from GC–EI–MS spectra, and couples it with a large language model for post‑processing. In the first stage, DiffGCMS produces candidate structures; the LLM then validates, repairs, and reranks these candidates while offering interpretable explanations of fragment‑ion peaks. On a large NIST 20 test set, the combined approach improves accuracy and ensures 100% candidate validity for small molecules, demonstrating the value of spectrum‑aware post‑processing.
