Standard Chain-of-Thought (CoT) reasoning trades reliability for responsiveness: in a single user-visible token stream, more deliberation delays meaningful output, imposing a ``silence tax.'' We introduce \emph{Side-by-Side (SxS) Interleaved Reasoning}, a training framework that makes \emph{disclosu…
Autoregressive (AR) models, common in sequence generation, are limited in many biological tasks like de novo peptide sequencing and protein modeling by their unidirectional nature, failing to capture crucial global bidirectional token dependencies. Non-Autoregressive (NAR) models offer holistic, bid…
Peptide sequencing—the process of identifying amino acid sequences from mass spectrometry data—is a fundamental task in proteomics. Non-Autoregressive Transformers (NATs) have proven highly effective for this task, outperforming traditional methods. Unlike autoregressive models, which generate token…
Retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) has become a widely adopted paradigm for enabling knowledge-grounded large language models (LLMs). However, standard RAG pipelines often fail to ensure that model reasoning remains consistent with the evidence retrieved, leading to factual inconsistencies or unsu…
Scientific discoveries increasingly rely on complex multimodal reasoning based on information-intensive scientific data and domain-specific expertise. Empowered by expert-level scientific benchmarks, scientific Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) hold the potential to significantly enhance this…
De novo peptide sequencing is a critical task in proteomics. However, the performance of current deep learning-based methods is limited by the inherent complexity of mass spectrometry data and the heterogeneous distribution of noise signals, leading to data-specific biases. We present RankNovo, the…
