TL;DR
This paper introduces a machine learning method called TNEP to efficiently simulate infrared and Raman spectra for molecules and materials.
Contribution
The novel TNEP framework generalizes neuroevolution potentials to predict tensorial properties with improved accuracy and efficiency.
Findings
TNEP models outperform existing ML methods in predicting dipole moment, polarizability, and susceptibility.
The approach successfully predicts infrared and Raman spectra for liquid water, PTAF–, and BaZrO3.
TNEP is implemented in the open-source software gpumd for broad accessibility.
Abstract
Infrared and Raman spectroscopy are widely used for the characterization of gases, liquids, and solids, as the spectra contain a wealth of information concerning, in particular, the dynamics of these systems. Atomic scale simulations can be used to predict such spectra but are often severely limited due to high computational cost or the need for strong approximations that limit the application range and reliability. Here, we introduce a machine learning (ML) accelerated approach that addresses these shortcomings and provides a significant performance boost in terms of data and computational efficiency compared with earlier ML schemes. To this end, we generalize the neuroevolution potential approach to enable the prediction of rank one and two tensors to obtain the tensorial neuroevolution potential (TNEP) scheme. We apply the resulting framework to construct models for the dipole…
