Warning

metatensor-models is still very early in the concept stage. You should not use it for anything important.

This is a repository for models using metatensor, in one shape or another. The only requirement is for these models to be able to take metatensor objects as inputs and outputs. The models do not need to live entirely in this repository: in the most extreme case, this repository can simply contain a wrapper to an external model.

What is metatensor-models?

The idea behind metatensor-models is to have a general hub that provide an homogeneous enviroment and user interface to train, export and evaluate ML models and to connect those models with various MD engines (e.g. LAMMPS, i-PI, ASE ...). metatensor-models is the tool that transforms every ML architecture in an end-to-end model. Any custom ML architecture compatible with TorchScript can be integrated in metatensor-models, gaining automatic access to a training and evaluation interface, as well as compatibility with various MD engines.

Note: metatensor-models does not provide per se mathematical functionalities but relies on external models that implement the various architectures.

Features

  • Custom ML Architecture: Integrate any TorchScriptable ML model to explore innovative architectures.
  • MD Engine Compatibility: Supports various MD engines for diverse research and application needs.
  • Streamlined Training: Automated process leveraging MD-generated data to optimize ML models with minimal effort. It uses the hydra module to easy management of folder and files.
  • HPC Compatibility: Efficient in HPC environments for extensive simulations.
  • Future-Proof: Extensible to accommodate advancements in ML and MD fields.

List of Implemented Architectures

Currently metatensor-models supports the following architectures for building an atomistic model.

Name Description
SOAP BPNN A Behler-Parrinello neural network with SOAP features
Alchemical Model A Behler-Parrinello neural network with SOAP features and Alchemical Compression of the composition space

Installation

You can install metatensor-models with pip:

git clone https://github.com/lab-cosmo/metatensor-models
cd metatensor-models
pip install .

In addition, specific models must be installed by specifying the model name. For example, to install the SOAP-BPNN model, you can run:

pip install .[soap-bpnn]

Shell Completion

metatensor-models comes with completion definitions for its commands for bash and zsh. Since it is difficult to automatically configure shell completions in a robust manner, you must manually configure your shell to enable its completion support.

To make the completions available, source the definitions as part of your shell's startup. Add the following to your ~/.bash_profile, ~/.zshrc (or, if they don't exist, ~/.profile):

source $(metatensor-models --shell-completion)
