TL;DR

The results suggest that coupling generation with executable verification and feedback-guided refinement is an effective way to improve text-to-molecule generation.

Abstract

Text-to-molecule generation is typically formulated as a one-shot sequence generation problem, where a model directly maps target descriptions to molecular representations. However, molecular descriptions often contain informative structural constraints, and violating such constraints can change the molecular identity. This makes chemical verification and error correction important but underexplored. To fill this gap, we propose MolGVR, a chemistry-grounded Generator--Verifier--Refiner framework. The Generator infers structural evidence and generates candidate molecules. The Verifier addresses the lack of chemical validation by converting descriptions into chemical constraints and checking candidates against them. The Refiner addresses generation failures by revising candidates rejected by the Verifier. Experiments on ChEBI-20 and PCDes show that MolGVR improves exact-match performance. These results suggest that coupling generation with executable verification and feedback-guided refinement is an effective way to improve text-to-molecule generation.

Chemically Meaningful Textualization Enables Explainable Validation of Metal-Organic Frameworks by Large Language Models

Computation-ready metal-organic framework (MOF) databases are essential for high-throughput screening, yet many reported crystal structures remain chemically unreasonable or disordered, compromising simulation fidelity. Existing validation approaches can identify non-computation-ready structures, but they often rely on...
