摘要:

高精度的势能面对于化学体系的详细理解和预测建模具有重要意义。近年来,几种基于机器学习算法并适合于从头算参考计算的新型力场被引入以满足这一要求。在这里,我们展示了如何高维神经网络势可以自动生成有限大小的团簇的势能面在耦合团簇精度,即CCSD(T*)-F12 a/aug-cc-pVTZ。开发的自动化程序利用建立的固有特性的模型,使训练集的配置选择在一个公正的和有效的方式,以尽量减少昂贵的参考计算的计算工作量。这些想法被应用到质子化的水簇从水合氢阳离子,H $_3$ O $^+$,到四聚体,H $_9$ O $_{4}^{+}$,并导致一个单一的势能面,描述所有这些系统在基本上收敛耦合簇的精度与拟合误差为0.06 kJ/mol每个原子。拟合验证详细的所有集群的四聚体,并产生可靠的结果,不仅为固定点,而且为反应途径,中间配置,以及不同的采样技术。按照设计,以这种方式构建的NNPs可以处理非常不同的条件,包括原子核的量子性质和覆盖非常低和高温的增强采样技术。这使得能够快速和详尽地探索具有基本上收敛的相互作用的目标质子化水簇。此外,自动化过程将允许人们处理远超出当前情况的有限系统。

英文摘要:

Highly accurate potential energy surfaces are of key interest for the detailed understanding and predictive modeling of chemical systems. In recent years, several new types of force fields, which are based on machine learning algorithms and fitted to ab initio reference calculations, have been introduced to meet this requirement. Here we show how high-dimensional neural network potentials can be employed to automatically generate the potential energy surface of finite sized clusters at coupled cluster accuracy, namely CCSD(T*)-F12a/aug-cc-pVTZ. The developed automated procedure utilizes the established intrinsic properties of the model such that the configurations for the training set are selected in an unbiased and efficient way to minimize the computational effort of expensive reference calculations. These ideas are applied to protonated water clusters from the hydronium cation, H$_3$O$^+$, up to the tetramer, H$_9$O$_{4}^{+}$, and lead to a single potential energy surface that describes all these systems at essentially converged coupled cluster accuracy with a fitting error of 0.06 kJ/mol per atom. The fit is validated in detail for all clusters up to the tetramer and yields reliable results not only for stationary points, but also for reaction pathways, intermediate configurations, as well as different sampling techniques. Per design the NNPs constructed in this fashion can handle very different conditions including the quantum nature of the nuclei and enhanced sampling techniques covering very low as well as high temperatures. This enables fast and exhaustive exploration of the targeted protonated water clusters with essentially converged interactions. In addition, the automated process will allow one to tackle finite systems much beyond the present case.
