Recently, an #AI algorithm discovered a quantity in chemistry behaving like a conservation law. We now confirm it is one. Where do these come from, and where do we look for them in experiments? We (@robpollice,Daan,Martijn) derive the underlying laws here: arxiv.org/abs/2306.09553
With our new #AI algorithm, we finally managed to discover new conservation laws that domain experts didn't know about, in both fluid mechanics and atmospheric chemistry: arxiv.org/abs/2305.19525

Fresh!!
Fully differentiable Hückel model using #JAX.
i) We optimize the atom types for different molecular frameworks to find the molecule with the targeted property (HOMO-LUMO) 🧵 (1/3)

Doing molecular multi-objective optimization with genetic algorithms? See this benchmarking work led by our talented undergrad Nat. If you're attending #ai4mat virtually, visit Nat's poster. @mistergtom will also present it on site. Working paper here: openreview.net//pdf/541b02df…
Check out our poster on multi-objective optimization of molecules using genetic algorithms at the #NeurIPS2022 #ai4mat workshop! Led by Nathanael Kusanda, with @riley_hickman @akshat_ai @kjelljorner and @A_Aspuru_Guzik.

Hückel theory is one of the most simple quantum chemistry methods and a favorite of every organic chemist. Here we show with autodiff guru @RoVargasHdz how to make it autodifferentiable and tune the model parameters for optimal prediction of e.g. HOMO-LUMO gap

New #Robselects paper and preprint of the week at mstdn.science/web/@robpollic…
This one was a long time coming and finally found its home in @ChemicalScience. Exploring chemical reaction pathways starting from just a set of substrates and defining a single reactive internal coordinate. #compchem doi.org/10.1039/D2SC05135D
It was a pleasure working with @c_lavigne, @gpassosgomes and @A_Aspuru_Guzik. The code of IACTA is available on @GitHub: github.com/aspuru-guzik-grou…
