Reservoir computing is a machine learning algorithm that excels at predicting the evolution of time series, in particular, dynamical systems. Moreover, it has also shown superb performance at solving partial differential equations. In this work, we adapt this methodology to integrate the time-dependent Schrödinger equation, propagating an initial wavefunction in time. Since such wavefunctions are complex-valued high-dimensional arrays the reservoir computing formalism needs to be extended to cope with complex-valued data. Furthermore, we propose a multi-step learning strategy that avoids overfitting the training data. We illustrate the performance of our adapted reservoir computing method by application to four standard problems in molecular vibrational dynamics.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
