Thank you, @olexandr.bsky.social! Yes, AIMNet2 is included in the notebook. Users can choose between several models: TorchANI, AIMNet2, and MACE-OFF. 😉

Accessibility is key! ParametrizANI runs on
@googlecolab.bsky.social, a "click-and-go" experience with free access to CPUs. No heavy parallel processing needed! We've parametrized molecules in less than 5 minutes on CPU. A big step for accurate, efficient small molecule parametrization! 4/8

A core component: our Python version of the Rotational Profiler code. This analytical algorithm efficiently computes classical torsional dihedral parameters by fitting empirical energy profiles to a reference curve. #ComputationalChemistry #Algorithms #ForceFields 3/8

How? ParametrizANI uses the robust PyTorch-based TorchANI program & ANI deep learning models (ANI-1x, ANI-2x). This predicts potential energy surfaces with near-DFT or coupled-cluster accuracy, at a fraction of the computational cost! #DeepLearning #TorchANI #AIforScience 2/8

And what do you think would be faster to run it on a local machine with RTX 4090 or keep on the colab with the A100?

I don't have access to RTX 4090 and I'm only using A100 on Google Colab, so I suggested to check the original paper: doi.org/10.1101/2024...
Scalable emulation of protein equilibrium ensembles with generative deep learning
Following the sequence and structure revolutions, predicting the dynamical mechanisms of proteins that implement biological function remains an outstanding scientific challenge. Several experimental t...

However, do you think it would be better to do 5000 sample compared to 1000 sample?

I ran some tests and compared an ensemble of 1000 samples with each containing 5000 frames. I did not observe any differences between them except for the number of frames.
