Correcting density-driven errors in projection-based embedding.

چکیده
Projection-based embedding provides a simple and numerically robust framework for multiscale wavefunction-in-density-functional-theory (WF-in-DFT) calculations. The approach works well when the approximate DFT is sufficiently accurate to describe the energetics of the low-level subsystem and the coupling between subsystems. It is also necessary that the low-level DFT produces a qualitatively reasonable description of the total density, and in this work, we study model systems where delocalization error prevents this from being the case. We find substantial errors in embedding calculations on open-shell doublet systems in which self-interaction errors cause spurious delocalization of the singly occupied orbital. We propose a solution to this error by evaluating the DFT energy using a more accurate self-consistent density, such as that of Hartree-Fock (HF) theory. These so-called WF-in-(HF-DFT) calculations show excellent convergence towards full-system wavefunction calculations.

Line of Sight Method for Tracker Calibration in Projection-Based VR Systems
This paper describes a method for correcting static errors in the position component of a 6-degree-of-freedom tracker in a projection-based VR system. This method allows users to observe where errors in the environment are signiicant and correct them interactively. Later touch-up correction is possible as well. This technique is based on superimposing targets in physical space with their virtua...
متن کاملAccurate basis set truncation for wavefunction embedding.
Density functional theory (DFT) provides a formally exact framework for performing embedded subsystem electronic structure calculations, including DFT-in-DFT and wavefunction theory-in-DFT descriptions. In the interest of efficiency, it is desirable to truncate the atomic orbital basis set in which the subsystem calculation is performed, thus avoiding high-order scaling with respect to the size...

متن کاملImproved NAND Flash Memories Storage Reliablity Using Nonlinear Multi Error Correction Codes
Multi-level cell (MLC) NAND flash memories are popular storage media because of their power efficiency and large storage density. Conventional reliable MLC NAND flash memories based on BCH codes or Reed-Solomon (RS) codes have a large number of undetectable and miscorrected errors. Moreover, standard decoders for BCH and RS codes cannot be easily modified to correct errors beyond their error co...
متن کاملAn Approach to Increasing Reliability Using Syndrome Extension
Computational errors in numerical data processing may be detected efficiently by using parity values associated with real number codes, even when inherent round off errors are allowed in addition to failure disruptions. This paper examines correcting turbo codes by straightforward application of an algorithm derived for finite-field codes, modified to operate over any field. There are syndromes...
