In drug discovery, molecular optimization aims to iteratively refine a lead compound to improve molecular properties while preserving structural similarity to the original molecule. However, each oracle evaluation is expensive, making sample efficiency a key challenge for existing methods under a...

Large language models (LLMs) are introducing a paradigm shift in molecular discovery by enabling text-guided interaction with chemical spaces through natural language and symbolic notations, with emerging extensions to incorporate multi-modal inputs. To advance this emerging field, this survey pr...
