A Density Functional Tight Binding Layer for Deep Learning of Chemical Hamiltonians

Abstract: Current neural networks for predictions of molecular properties use quantum chemistry only as a source of training data. This paper explores models that use quantum chemistry as an integral part of the prediction process. This is done by implementing selfconsistent-charge Density-Functional-Tight-Binding (DFTB) theory as a layer for use in deep learning models. The DFTB layer takes, as input, Hamiltonian matrix elements generated from earlier layers and produces, as output, electronic properties from self-cons… Show more

“…When referring to the ML training process, the datasets generation can be done with active learning [285] instead of more traditional approaches like MD or metadynamics [286]. Quantum 'intuition' can also be incorporated in the ML training process by using a density-functional tight-binding (DFTB) or other model processing layer in neural networks [287].…”

“…The prediction of crystal structures and their stability [399,400] has also been performed for several materials such as perovskites [287,[401][402][403], superhard materials [404], bcc materials and Fe alloys [405], binary alloys [406], phosphor hosts [407], Heuslers [408,409], catalysts [410], amorphous carbon [411], high-pressurehydrogen-compressor materials [412], binary intermetallic compounds with transition metals [413], and multicomponent crystalline solids [414]. An atomic-position independent descriptor was able to reach a MAE of 70 meV/atom for formation energy predictions of a diverse dataset of more than 85 000 materials [415].…”

“…ML has been used for improvement of DFTB performance achieved by learning the difference in energy between DFTB and higher level methods [151]. A recent example is a work by Irle and co-workers using NN to learn a correction to DFTB (vs. DFT) for a large number of geometries of glycine [152].…”

“…molecular potential energies and forces [14,15,16,17,18], atomic charges [19,20,21], molecular dipoles [22], HOMO-LUMO gaps, and more [23,24]. ML has also been applied for the prediction of QM-based Hamiltonians [25,26], which provide the electronic structure for a given system. Machine learning approaches promise to revolutionize the computational study of atomic systems by providing a highly accurate and computationally efficient route for obtaining QM accurate properties.…”
