Atomistic Language Models Understand and Generate Materials
Sathya Edamadaka, Krithik Ramesh, Ju Li +1
Atomistic structure and natural language have long been modeled separately, with language models either calling atomistic models as tools or being fine-tuned on lossy textual encod…
MetaDNS: Enhancing Exploration in Discrete Neural Samplers via Well-Tempered Metadynamics
Xiaochen Du, Juno Nam, Jaemoo Choi +7
Sampling from discrete distributions with multiple modes and energy barriers is fundamental to machine learning and computational physics. Recent discrete neural samplers like MDNS…
Harnessing AtomisticSkills for Agentic Atomistic Research
Bowen Deng, Bohan Li, Matthew Cox +20
Computational materials science and chemistry span vast knowledge domains and fractured software ecosystems. Although large language models (LLMs) have demonstrated research capabi…
From Knowledge to Action: Outcomes of the 2025 Large Language Model (LLM) Hackathon for Applications in Materials Science and Chemistry
Aritra Roy, Kevin Shen, Andrew MacBride +350
Large language models (LLMs) are rapidly changing how researchers in materials science and chemistry discover, organize, and act on scientific knowledge. This paper analyzes a broa…
Universally Converging Representations of Matter Across Scientific Foundation Models
Sathya Edamadaka, Soojung Yang, Ju Li +1
Machine learning models of vastly different modalities and architectures are being trained to predict the behavior of molecules, materials, and proteins. However, it remains unclea…
