Evaluating Large Language Models in Scientific Discovery

Zhangde Song, Jieyu Lu, Yuanqi Du +53

Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly applied to scientific research, yet prevailing science benchmarks probe decontextualized knowledge and overlook the iterative reasonin…

Accelerating inverse materials design using generative diffusion models with reinforcement learning

Junwu Chen, Jeff Guo, Edvin Fako +1

Diffusion models promise to accelerate material design by directly generating novel structures with desired properties, but existing approaches typically require expensive and subs…

KL-Regularized Reinforcement Learning is Designed to Mode Collapse

Anthony GX-Chen, Jatin Prakash, Jeff Guo +2

It is commonly believed that optimizing the reverse KL divergence results in "mode seeking", while optimizing forward KL results in "mass covering", with the latter being preferred…

Generative Molecular Design with Steerable and Granular Synthesizability Control

Jeff Guo, Víctor Sabanza-Gil, Olha Semenenko +20

Designing molecules that are both property-optimal and readily synthesizable is a central challenge in drug discovery. Existing works that do consider synthesizability can jointly…

LLM-Augmented Chemical Synthesis and Design Decision Programs

Haorui Wang, Jeff Guo, Lingkai Kong +4

Retrosynthesis, the process of breaking down a target molecule into simpler precursors through a series of valid reactions, stands at the core of organic chemistry and drug develop…

Tango*: Constrained synthesis planning using chemically informed value functions

Daniel Armstrong, Zlatko Joncev, Jeff Guo +1

Computer-aided synthesis planning (CASP) has made significant strides in generating retrosynthetic pathways for simple molecules in a non-constrained fashion. Recent work introduce…
