Edunov: Physics-guided inference-time scaling significantly boosts molecular model performance
“We are doing very similar thing with our models where a model is forced to think, except it's not thinking in language tokens. It's thinking in terms of crystal structures, not fully materialized crystal structures, but some sort of a crystal structure represe…”
