Prediction of pair potential given a typical configuration of an interacting classical system is a difficult inverse problem. There exists no exact result that can predict the potential given the structural information. We demonstrate that using machine learning (ML) one can get a quick but accurate answer to the question: which pair potential lead to the given structure (represented by pair correlation function)? We use artificial neural network (NN) to address this question and show that this ML technique is capable of providing very accurate prediction of pair potential irrespective of whether the system is in a crystalline, liquid or gas phase. We show that the trained network works well for sample system configurations taken from both equilibrium and out of equilibrium simulations (active matter systems) when the later is mapped to an effective equilibrium system with a modified potential. We show that the ML prediction about the effective interaction for the active system is not only useful to make prediction about the MIPS (motility induced phase separation) phase but also identifies the transition towards this state.

Equilibrium and out-of-equilibrium transitions of an off-lattice protein model have been identified and studied. In particular, the out-of-equilibrium dynamics of the protein undergoing mechanical unfolding is investigated, and by using a work fluctuation relation, the system free energy landscape is evaluated. Three different structural transitions are identified along the unfolding pathways. Furthermore, the reconstruction of the the free and potential energy profiles in terms of inherent structure formalism allows us to put in direct correspondence these transitions with the equilibrium thermal transitions relevant for protein folding/unfolding. Through the study of the fluctuations of the protein structure at different temperatures, we identify the dynamical transitions, related to configurational rearrangements of the protein, which are precursors of the thermal transitions.
In this work we compare and characterize the behavior of Langevin and Dissipative Particle Dynamics (DPD) thermostats in a broad range of non-equilibrium simulations of polymeric systems. Polymer brushes in relative sliding motion, polymeric liquids in Poiseuille and Couette flows, and brush-melt interfaces are used as model systems to analyze the efficiency and limitations of different Langevin and DPD thermostat implementations. Widely used coarse-grained bead-spring models under good and poor solvent conditions are employed to assess the effects of the thermostats. We considered equilibrium, transient, and steady state examples for testing the ability of the thermostats to maintain constant temperature and to reproduce the underlying physical phenomena in non-equilibrium situations. The common practice of switching-off the Langevin thermostat in the flow direction is also critically revisited. The efficiency of different weight functions for the DPD thermostat is quantitatively analyzed as a function of the solvent quality and the non-equilibrium situation.
Neural network based machine learning is emerging as a powerful tool for obtaining phase diagrams when traditional regression schemes using local equilibrium order parameters are not available, as in many-body localized or topological phases. Nevertheless, instances of machine learning offering new insights have been rare up to now. Here we show that a single feed-forward neural network can decode the defining structures of two distinct MBL phases and a thermalizing phase, using entanglement spectra obtained from individual eigenstates. For this, we introduce a simplicial geometry based method for extracting multi-partite phase boundaries. We find that this method outperforms conventional metrics (like the entanglement entropy) for identifying MBL phase transitions, revealing a sharper phase boundary and shedding new insight into the topology of the phase diagram. Furthermore, the phase diagram we acquire from a single disorder configuration confirms that the machine-learning based approach we establish here can enable speedy exploration of large phase spaces that can assist with the discovery of new MBL phases. To our knowledge this work represents the first example of a machine learning approach revealing new information beyond conventional knowledge.
Active matter systems are driven out of equilibrium at the level of individual constituents. One widely studied class are systems of athermal particles that move under the combined influence of interparticle interactions and self-propulsions, with the latter evolving according to the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck stochastic process. Intuitively, these so-called active Ornstein-Uhlenbeck particles (AOUPs) systems are farther from equilibrium for longer self-propulsion persistence times. Quantitatively, this is confirmed by the increasing equal-time velocity correlations (which are trivial in equilibrium) and by the increasing violation of the Einstein relation between the self-diffusion and mobility coefficients. In contrast, the entropy production rate, calculated from the ratio of the probabilities of the position space trajectory and its time-reversed counterpart, has a non-monotonic dependence on the persistence time. Thus, it does not properly quantify the departure of AOUPs systems from equilibrium.
We outline a machine learning strategy for determining the effective interaction in the condensed phases of matter using scattering. Via a case study of colloidal suspensions, we showed that the effective potential can be probabilistically inferred from the scattering spectra without any restriction imposed by model assumptions. Comparisons to existing parametric approaches demonstrate the superior performance of this method in accuracy, efficiency, and applicability. This method can effectively enable quantification of interaction in highly correlated systems using scattering and diffraction experiments.
