Encoding quantum-chemical knowledge into machine-learning models of complex molecular properties

Ksenia Briling

Statistical (machine-learning, ML) models are more and more often used in computational chemistry as a substitute to more expensive ab initio and parametrizable methods. While the ML algorithms are capable of learning physical laws implicitly from data, ad ...

SPAHM(a,b): Encoding the Density Information from Guess Hamiltonian in Quantum Machine Learning Representations

Anne-Clémence Corminboeuf, Alberto Fabrizio, Yannick Calvino Alonso, Ksenia Briling

Recently, we introduced a class of molecular representations for kernel-based regression methods─the spectrum of approximated Hamiltonian matrices (SPAHM)─that takes advantage of lightweight one-electron Hamiltonians traditionally used as a self-consistent ...
