Model Description

Pairmixer is an efficient alternative to AlphaFold3's Pairformer architecture for biomolecular structure prediction. By eliminating triangle attention while preserving geometric reasoning through triangle multiplication, Pairmixer achieves:

  • 4× faster inference compared to Pairformer
  • 34% lower training cost
  • Competitive accuracy on standard benchmarks
