Studying the dynamical behavior of a system often depends on characterizing how it transitions between long-lived states. Because such transitions are rare, observing them usually requires specialized...
The paper introduces GenAIMMD, an iterative algorithm that learns the committor function and trains a conditioned Boltzmann Generator to generate uncorrelated transition paths without prior knowledge of the reaction coordinate. This method combines transition path sampling with committor learning, enabling fully parallelizable sampling. Benchmarks on a toy model and a polymer system show a substantial performance improvement over standard TPS.

arXiv:2604. 13213v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Rare events such as conformational changes in biomolecules, phase transitions, and chemical reactions are central to the behavior of many physical systems, yet they are extremely difficult to study computationally because unbiased simulations seldom produce them.

ReCurveflow is a flow‑matching framework that learns to predict transition state geometries by training on continuously curved reference paths derived from full NEB bands, rather than straight linear paths. It introduces an off‑path correction mechanism that generates corrective velocity fields when the model encounters geometries off the training path, improving resistance to exposure bias and TS prediction accuracy. Across multiple data splits and evaluation metrics, ReCurveflow outperforms seven baselines and produces reaction trajectories whose energy profiles closely follow the reference NEB path, aiding NEB optimization and demonstrating effective corrective behavior.
