NEUP CINR-21-24312: Accelerating the development of reliable and robust machine learning-based interatomic potentials for the prediction of molten salt structure and properties

Machine learning-based interatomic potentials (MLIPs) used in molecular dynamics (MD) can accurately and efficiently predict molten salt properties. However many machine learning-based methods require large training sets, and can fail unpredictably. This project will overcome these challenges by developing a method for efficiently sampling diverse configurations from MD to train reliable and robust neural network potentials, and develop new models for predicting errors in MLIPs.
