• Abstract summary: Kohn-Sham regularizer (KSR) is a machine learning approach that optimize a physics-informed exchange-correlation functional. We evaluate the generalizability of KSR by training on atomic systems and testing on molecules at equilibrium. Our nonlocal functional outperforms any existing machine learning functionals by predicting the ground-state energies of the test systems with a mean absolute error of 2.7 milli-Hartrees.

• Abstract: Kohn-Sham regularizer (KSR) is a machine learning approach that optimizes a physics-informed exchange-correlation functional within a differentiable Kohn-Sham density functional theory framework. We evaluate the generalizability of KSR by training on atomic systems and testing on molecules at equilibrium. We propose a spin-polarized version of KSR with local, semilocal, and nonlocal approximations for the exchange-correlation functional. The generalization error from our semilocal approximation is comparable to other differentiable approaches. Our nonlocal functional outperforms any existing machine learning functionals by predicting the ground-state energies of the test systems with a mean absolute error of 2.7 milli-Hartrees.

• Variational principle to regularize machine-learned density functionals: the non-interacting kinetic-energy functional [0.0]
  We propose a new and efficient regularization method to train density functionals based on deep neural networks. The method is tested on (effectively) one-dimensional systems, including the hydrogen chain, non-interacting electrons, and atoms of the first two periods. For the atomic systems, the generalizability of the regularization method is demonstrated by training also an exchange--correlation functional.

  Our study uses a Fokker-Planck approach, adapted from statistical physics, to explore these parallels. We focus in particular on the stationary state of the system in the long-time limit, which in conventional SGD is out of equilibrium. We propose a new variation of Langevin dynamics (SGLD) that harnesses without replacement minibatching.

• Reducing charge delocalization error of density functional theory [0.0]
  The charge delocalization error, besides nondynamic correlation, has been a major challenge to density functional theory. We extend a functional designed for nondynamic correlation to treat the charge delocalization error by modifying the nondynamic correlation for parallel spins. Our results are the closest to those of CCSD(T) in the whole range of the dissociation compared with contemporary functionals.
