Predicting the biological function of molecules, be it proteins or drug-like compounds, from their atomic structure is an important and long-standing problem.

Tabular in-context learners perform well on biomolecular tasks, but performance depends on the representation used.
In the majority of molecular optimization tasks, predictive machine learning (ML) models are limited due to the unavailability and cost of generating big experimental datasets on the specific task. To circumvent this limitation, ML models are trained on big theoretical datasets or experimental indicators of molecular s…

A molecule's geometry, also known as conformation, is one of a molecule's most important properties, determining the reactions it participates in, the bonds it forms, and the interactions it has with other molecules.
