AI-enhanced computational chemistry
In our latest tutorial we show how MLatom can be used to simulate UV/vis spectra via single-point convolution and nuclear-ensemble approach (NEA). ML can also be used to increase precision of the NEA spectra at reduced cost. You can watch the detailed introduction and demonstration in the video. All …
Theoretical IR (infrared) spectroscopy is a powerful tool for assisting chemical structure identification. However, approaches based on quantum chemical calculations suffer from either high computational cost (e.g., density functional theory, DFT) or insufficient accuracy (semi-empirical methods). Hence, we introduce a new …

AIQM2 is the long-awaited successor of the highly successful AIQM1 (see Nat. Commun. paper). It has overall improved accuracy and much better performance for transition states, where it produces high-quality geometries and barrier heights: it is better than B3LYP/6-31G* but orders of …
AIQM2 is out: better and faster than B3LYP for reaction simulations! Read more »
A year ago, we released MLatom 3, making MLatom the fully-fledged Python package. This shift endowed MLatom with much of its current flexibility that also allowed us to rapidly do method development and new implementations: in one year we had …
XACS team in collaboration with Mario Barbatti and groups in Warsaw University and Zhejiang lab has recently published a paper in JCTC about the versatile Python implementation of surface-hopping dynamics. This implementation is based on a powerful MLatom ecosystem for …

Quasi-classical molecular dynamics (also known as quasi-classical trajectories (QCT)) accounts for the zero-point energy (ZPE) in contrast to classical dynamics and is very popular in studying chemical reactions (see, e.g., works by Houk et al. in PNAS 2012, 109, 12860 and J. Am. …

MLatom 3.4.0 has been released on 29.03.2024. This release is a major release with usability improvements: Contributed to this release: Pavlo O. Dral, Yuxinxin Chen, Fuchun Ge, and Yi-Fan Hou.
A machine learning potential with low error in the potential energies does not guarantee good performance for the simulations. One of the reasons is that it is hard to train machine learning potentials with balanced descriptions of different PES regions, …
