In this paper we first analyzed the inductive bias underlying the data scattered across complex free energy landscapes (FEL), and exploited it to train deep neural networks which yield reduced and clustered representation for the FEL. Our parametric method, called Information Distilling of Metastability (IDM), is end-to-end differentiable thus scalable to ultra-large dataset. IDM is also a clustering algorithm and is able to cluster the samples in the meantime of reducing the dimensions. Besides, as an unsupervised learning method, IDM differs from many existing dimensionality reduction and clustering methods in that it neither requires a cherry-picked distance metric nor the ground-true number of clusters, and that it can be used to unroll and zoom-in the hierarchical FEL with respect to different timescales. Through multiple experiments, we show that IDM can achieve physically meaningful representations which partition the FEL into well-defined metastable states hence are amenable for downstream tasks such as mechanism analysis and kinetic modeling.
Alchemical binding free energy (BFE) calculations offer an efficient and thermodynamically rigorous approach to in silico binding affinity predictions. As a result of decades of methodological improvements and recent advances in computer technology,
We introduce a diffusion model for energetically inhomogeneous systems. A random walker moves on a spin-S Ising configuration, which generates the energy landscape on the lattice through the nearest-neighbors interaction. The underlying energetic env
One of the most challenging and frequently arising problems in many areas of science is to find solutions of a system of multivariate nonlinear equations. There are several numerical methods that can find many (or all if the system is small enough) s
Free energy is energy that is available to do work. Maximizing the free energy gain and the gain in work that can be extracted from a system is important for a wide variety of physical and technological processes, from energy harvesting processes suc
Machine learning techniques are being increasingly used as flexible non-linear fitting and prediction tools in the physical sciences. Fitting functions that exhibit multiple solutions as local minima can be analysed in terms of the corresponding mach
