Artificial neural network potentials (ANNP). Neural networks (NN) are used more and more for a wide array of applications. Here we are concerned with a more narrow application; their use in fitting. In particular the output layer, or node, provides an energy as a function of the input layer.

Activation functions

Example

The output of a feedforward NN, having a single layer of hidden neurons, each having a sigmoid activation function and a linear output neuron, is given by:

Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle g(\mathbf{x},\mathbf{w}) = \sum_{i=1}^{N_c} \left[ w_{N_C+1,i} \tanh \left( \sum_{j=1}^n w_{i,j} x_j + w_{i0} \right) \right] + w_{N_c+1,0} }

Applications

Since the early work of Blank et al. [1] ANNS have been sucessfully developed for water [2] aqueous NaOH solutions [3] gold nanoparticles [4].
