Automatic differentiation has become an important tool for optimization problems in computational science, and it has been applied to the Hartree-Fock method. Although the reverse-mode automatic differentiation is more efficient than the forward-mode, eigenvalue calculation in the self-consistent field method has impeded the use of the reverse-mode automatic differentiation. Here, we propose a method to directly minimize Hartree-Fock energy under the orthonormality constraint of the molecular orbitals using reverse-mode automatic differentiation by avoiding eigenvalue calculation. According to our validation, the proposed method was more stable than the conventional self-consistent field method and achieved comparable accuracy.

  1. Self-Refining Training for Amortized Density Functional Theory

    cs.LG 2025-06 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A self-refining training loop, where a neural network samples molecular conformations from its own predicted energy and trains on them, reduces the need for large labeled DFT datasets in amortized density functional theory.
