Optimization of an exchange-correlation density functional for water

Density-functional approximations for exchange and correlation

Density-functional theory (DFT) is based on two pivotal theorems due to Hohenberg and Kohn [1]. The first theorem states that the ground-state density ρ(r) of a system of electrons uniquely determines the Hamiltonian and hence all properties that can be derived from it. Using mathematical language we can say that the total electronic energy of the system is a functional of the electron density,

Development of an exchange-correlation functional with uncertainty quantification capabilities for density functional theory

This paper presents the development of a new exchange-correlation functional from the point of view of machine learning. Using atomization energies of solids and small molecules, we train a linear model for the exchange enhancement factor using a Bayesian approach which allows for the quantification of uncertainties in the predictions. A relevance vector machine is used to automatically select ...
