Can we create a SMILES-like notation for nanomaterials? A collaborative workshop tackles the challenge of representing complex, multi-component nanomaterials with a proposed extension to the established InChI system.
Performance evaluation of MolRec at the CLEF 2012 competition reveals a large performance gap between the automatic evaluation set (94-96% accuracy) and the manual evaluation set of complex patent structures (46-59% accuracy), with systematic analysis of failure modes including character grouping bugs, touching characters, and four-way junction vectorization.
ICML 2025 analysis rigorously quantifying when non-conservative force models (which predict forces directly) fail in molecular dynamics, demonstrating simulation instabilities and proposing hybrid architectures that capture speed benefits without sacrificing physical correctness.
