Abstract
Machine learning (ML) interatomic potentials (ML-IAPs) are generated for alkane and polyene hydrocarbons using on-the-fly adaptive sampling and a sparse Gaussian process regression (SGPR) algorithm. The ML model is generated based on the PBE+D3 level of density functional theory (DFT) with molecular dynamics (MD) for small alkane and polyene molecules. Intermolecular interactions are also trained with clusters and condensed phases of small molecules. It shows excellent transferability to long alkanes and closely describes the ab inito potential energy surface for polyenes. Simulation of liquid ethane also shows reasonable agreement with experimental reports. This is a promising initiative toward a universal ab initio quality force-field for hydrocarbons and organic molecules.
