SGD, approximations of Newton's method, natural gradient descent, and Adam are proven compatible with evolutionary dynamics when augmented with DLS noise, turning them into valid in silico simulations of asexual Darwinian evolution.
SOAP and SOAP-Muon optimizers deliver faster convergence and higher final accuracy than Adam for NequIP and Allegro MLIPs, with the largest gains under partial force supervision.
