NOSE: Neural Olfactory-Semantic Embedding with Tri-Modal Orthogonal Contrastive Learning

Olfaction lies at the intersection of chemical structure, neural encoding, and linguistic perception, yet existing representation methods fail to fully capture this pathway. Current approaches typically model only isolated segments of the olfactory pathway, overlooking the complete chain from molecule to receptors to linguistic descriptions. Such fragmentation yields learned embeddings that lack both biological grounding and semantic interpretability. We propose NOSE (Neural Olfactory-Semantic Embedding), a representation learning framework that aligns three modalities along the olfactory pathway: molecular structure, receptor sequence, and natural language description. Rather than simply...
