MinerU.Chem system achieves 93% accuracy in chemical structure recognition

A new system called MinerU.Chem has been developed to extract chemical structures and reactions from organic chemistry documents, converting them into machine-readable data. This system, integrated into the MinerU platform, uses a core representation called CARBON to preserve visual layout and chemical semantics. In evaluations, MinerU.Chem achieved a 93.02% accuracy in recognizing molecular structures, significantly outperforming GPT 5.6 "Sol" by over 18 percentage points on the MolRecBench-Wild dataset. AI

IMPACT This system could accelerate AI for Chemistry tasks like reaction prediction and drug design by enabling better data extraction from scientific literature.
