Predicting charge density distribution of materials using a local-environment-based graph convolutional network

Abstract: Electron charge density distribution of materials is one of the key quantities in computational materials science as theoretically it determines the ground state energy and practically it is used in many materials analyses. However, the scaling of density functional theory calculations with number of atoms limits the usage of charge-density-based calculations and analyses. Here we introduce a machine learning scheme with local-environment-based graphs and graph convolutional neural networks to predict charge d… Show more

“…83 Electronic energies, particularly if converted to formation energies, may provide insight into the relative stability of MOFs. 84 Machine learning the charge density 85 is a potential way to bypass a large portion of the calculations performed with Kohn-Sham DFT. [86][87][88] Both the charge density and density of states can provide insight into the electronic structure in addition to serving as promising features to predict a variety of other quantum-chemical properties.…”

“…We connect a given atom with its neighbors, identified by the tessellations, and describe Si/Ge configurations as crystal graphs. Crystal graphs encode both atomic information and bonding environments [44][45][46] , and are being increasingly used in ML models for successful materials property prediction 42,[44][45][46] . Figure 2c shows representative crystal graphs G of a Si/Ge configuration.…”

“…Minimum Li adsorption energies from GCN and DFT. In this work, we choose graph convolutional networks (GCN) as the machine learning architecture for learning Li site energies at different adsorption sites, because it has been shown to encode atomic and geometric information with high transferability 34,43,45 , and has been utilized as a model form of interatomic potentials 30, 42 . In order to efficiently learn Li adsorption energies at different sites, we iteratively sample sites from each material with site energies calculated by DFT, and then train GCN on all the calculated energies.…”
