Abstract

Ab initio atomic relaxations often take large numbers of steps and long times to converge. An atomic relaxation method based on on-the-flight force learning and a corresponding new curved line minimization algorithm is presented to dramatically accelerate this process. Results for metal clusters demonstrate the significant speedup of this method compared with conventional conjugate-gradient method.
