Zatom-2: Multitask Pretraining on Atomistic Data for Generative Modeling across Domains
To this end, we introduce Zatom-2, an atomistic generative model pretrained on approximately five million structures from the OMol25 and OMat24 electronic structure datasets.
Key points
- Unified atomistic modeling has the potential to accelerate discovery in chemistry, materials science, and biology by bridging data-rich chemical domains and data-scarce biological contexts.
- Zatom-2 features a multiscale Transformer architecture coupled with conditional flow matching that supports force conditioning and foundational pretraining tasks such as generation, structure prediction, and prediction of molecular and material energies and forces.
- Empirically, Zatom-2 achieves better molecular distribution fidelity than Zatom-1 and achieves strong performance on existing molecule and material generation benchmarks.
- Zatom-2 demonstrates the ability to control sample generation across low- and high-force regimes, and enhances protein generation in a low-data setting through joint generative-predictive pretraining and transfer learning, increasing protein backbone designability in a length extrapolation setting from 67.8% without pretraining to 74.8% after finetuning on 2,000 protein domains.
