From Syntax to Semantics: Unveiling the Emergence of Chirality in SMILES Translation Models

Zehao Li, Yasuhiro Yoshikai, Shumpei Nemoto +2

Understanding how chemical language models (CLMs) learn chemical meaning from molecular string representations, rather than only surface-level string patterns, is an important ques…

Exploring Multi-Objective Trade-offs in Reference Compound Selection for Validation Studies of Toxicity Assays

Yohei Ohto, Tadahaya Mizuno, Yasuhiro Yoshikai +2

In chemical safety assessment, validation studies rely on reference compound lists to evaluate the applicability of alternative methods prior to regulatory acceptance. These lists…

Notation-level confounding: When inconsistent molecular notations mislead chemical language models

Yosuke Kikuchi, Yasuhiro Yoshikai, Shumpei Nemoto +4

Chemical language models (CLMs) are increasingly used for molecular design and property prediction. Because these models learn from textual encodings of molecules, differences in h…

Extraction of diverse gene groups with individual relationship from gene co-expression networks

Iori Azuma, Tadahaya Mizuno, Hiroyuki Kusuhara

Motivation: Modules in gene coexpression networks (GCN) can be regarded as gene groups with individual relationships. No studies have optimized module detection methods to extract…
