Happy that IBM uses proper MLPs, i.e. self-normalizing networks, in their Flowstate model! ;)

Another win for xLSTM
xLSTM shines as an Electrocardiogram (ECG) foundation model: arxiv.org/abs/2509.10151

"xECG achieves superior performance over earlier approaches, defining a new baseline for future ECG foundation models."

xLSTM is perfectly suited for time series prediction as shown by TiRex.

Devastating blow for GNNs/MPNNs for chemistry and small molecules:

All of them are not statistically better than simple ECFP . Only our CLAMP model does the job ;)

Just in: GPT-5 achieves AGI in chemical sciences!!1!!1!

Actually, NO! .... struggles with generating 2D graphs from SMILES.

Great idea for a dataset and task! Thanks for using and assessing out Prot-xLSTM
In 1965, Margaret Dayhoff published the Atlas of Protein Sequence and Structure, which collated the 65 proteins whose amino acid sequences were then known.

Inspired by that Atlas, today we are releasing the Dayhoff Atlas of protein sequence data and protein language models.

We are soooo proud. Our European-developed TiRex is leading the field—significantly ahead of U.S. competitors like Amazon, Datadog, Salesforce, and Google, as well as Chinese models from companies such as Alibaba.
