Generative modelling powered by room-temperature polariton condensates

Flow-based models have established state-of-the-art performance in generative modeling across domains, but are hard to interpret due to their complex latent embeddings. In particular, the entanglement of generative factors in the latent space hinders controlled generation. We circumvent this issue by appealing to a novel conditional generator based on Lie groups that disentangles an alternative latent space, which is aligned closely with the latent flow space using an adversarial loss. Our approach facilitates interpretable conditional generation while obviating the need to expand the dimensionality of the flow space (owing to its invertibility requirements). The proposed model demonstrates strong performance across conditional image (including, outperforming StyleGAN on MNIST, dSprites) and molecule (using standard QM9, ZINC and MOSES) generation tasks

Quantum generative adversarial networks (QGANs) have attracted increasing attention for image generation using parameterized quantum circuits. Existing amplitude-based approaches face two key limitations: pixel locations are typically encoded by computational-basis indices or address qubits, causing quantum resources to grow with image resolution; meanwhile, jointly decoding many pixels from normalized quantum states introduces probability competition among pixels and limits precise pixel-wise control. To address these issues, we reformulate quantum image generation as coordinate-conditioned implicit function learning. Our method takes spatial coordinates and latent variables as inputs, uses a classical embedding network to generate input-dependent circuit parameters, and evaluates a variational quantum circuit at each coordinate. Pixel intensities are directly obtained from the expectation value of a dedicated color qubit, and a complete image is generated by querying all spatial coordinates. This design decouples image resolution from address-qubit requirements and avoids shared probability-normalization constraints across pixels. We further design a specialized variational quantum circuit to provide structural inductive bias for coordinate-conditioned generation. Simulated experiments on two benchmark datasets show that our method outperforms FRQI-based generation and PQWGAN in visual and quantitative quality while using fewer qubits, and also achieves better generation quality than the corresponding classical baseline.

Designing OLED molecules with targeted optical properties remains challenging due to the scarcity of high-quality data and the limited reliability of conditional control in generative models across chemical motifs. Here, we benchmark a token-conditioned autoregressive language model for OLED molecular generation in a realistic low-data regime. A GPT2 model is pretrained on large chemical corpora, augmented with discrete property tokens, and fine-tuned using multi-task optimisation. Conditioning targets vertical absorption energy and oscillator strength, with the HOMO-LUMO gap included as an auxiliary electronic descriptor. Generated molecules are evaluated at the TDDFT level to assess distributional fidelity and controllability. The generated library reproduces the dominant optical-property support of the training distribution while shifting towards lower molecular weight and fewer heavy atoms. Token-level control is consistently directional across conditioning bins, but is not fully orthogonal and exhibits local calibration irregularities. A chemotype-resolved analysis further shows that controllability depends strongly on local electronic environments: moderately conjugated aromatic-carbon motifs are associated with improved joint target satisfaction, whereas electron-withdrawing motifs, particularly aryl nitriles, show systematic red-shifting and reduced controllability. These results establish a quantitative benchmark for conditional OLED molecular generation and show that model reliability must be assessed in chemically meaningful subspaces rather than from aggregate property distributions alone.
