Active learning graph neural networks for partial charge prediction of metal-organic frameworks via dropout Monte Carlo

S. Thaler, F. Mayer, T. Siby, A. Gagliardi, J. Zavadlav, Npj Comput. Mater. 2024, paper, GitHub

Partial charge prediction for Metal Organic Frameworks. The Dropout Monte Carlo is computationally cheaper than the conventional ensemble approach. At the same time, it provides a reliable estimation of the mean absolute error for unseen MOFs, enabling an efficient active learning strategy.
