Multi-Granular Rationale-Guided Molecular LLM for Property Prediction
Quick summary
arXiv:2608.10480v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) are widely applied across chemical tasks, such as molecular property prediction, which underpins drug discovery. Molecular LLMs represent a molecule through several modalities, notably a 1D SMILES sequence or a 2D molecular graph. Both encode molecular information implicitly, so the contribution of individual substructures remains opaque. Retrieval and augmentation methods add context, but from external sources. However, the cues chemists reason over are the internal substructures that drive a property up or down. We
