!AIQU: Combining Artificial Intelligence and Quantum Mechanics to Develop Improved Computational Approaches

The goal of the !AIQU collaboration is to bridge Artificial Intelligence (AI) and QUantum mechanics to develop improved computational approaches. Combining the predictive power of QM calculations with the efficiency of AI / machine learning techniques has the potential to establish rapid and accurate predictions for industrially relevant properties at large scale.  The methods will be applied to complex molecular and materials systems.
