Methods for predicting molecular structure predictions have so far focused on only the most probable conformation, but molecular structures are dynamic and can change when performing their biological functions, for example. Zheng et al. use a graph transformer approach to learn the equilibrium distribution of molecular systems and show that this can be helpful for a number of downstream tasks, including protein structure prediction, ligand docking and molecular design.
