arXiv:2606. 07712v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Progress in AI-driven crystal materials science has so far been carried by narrow architectures purpose-built for individual tasks -- graph neural networks for property prediction, diffusion and flow-matching models for crystal generation -- each excelling within its niche yet unable to act as a shared backbone across the full spectrum of materials problems.

arXiv:2602. 20573v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Molecules are often represented as SMILES strings, which can be readily converted to hand-crafted descriptors or fingerprints (FP) for molecular property prediction.
By Rajan, Ishaan Gupta
arXiv:2607. 13115v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Small language models (SLMs) have shown promise for zero-shot molecular property prediction from SMILES strings, yet they often suffer from structural blindness because sequence representations under-specify key graph-topological cues.
