Modeling Intermolecular Interactions with Exchange-Hole Dipole Moment Dispersion Corrections to Neural Network Potentials.

Neural network potentials (NNPs) are an innovative approach for calculating the potential energy and forces of a chemical system. In principle, these methods are capable of modeling large systems with an accuracy approaching that of a high-level ab initio calculation, but with a much smaller computational cost. Due to their training to density-functional theory (DFT) data and neglect of long-range interactions, some classes of NNPs require an additional term to include London dispersion physics.
