Demystifying Multimodal Biomolecular Co-design With Intrinsic Geodesic Coupling
Biomolecules such as proteins and small-molecule ligands play a central role in biological systems, arising from the tight interplay between sequence and three-dimensional structure. Recent generative models for biomolecular co-design aim to capture this interplay by jointly modeling coupled modalities. However, existing approaches largely adopt a parallel execution of marginal generative processes, implicitly enforcing fixed synchronous coupling. We argue that a critical but overlooked degree of freedom lies in how these marginal processes are temporally coupled during training and generation, where inappropriate coupling can introduce high-variance supervision and inconsistent intermedi...
