Nonempirical density-functional theory for van der Waals interactions
Bibliographic record
Abstract
In previous work, Kannemann and Becke [ J. Chem. Theory Comput. 5, 719 (2009) and J. Chem. Theory Comput. 6, 1081 (2010) ] have demonstrated that the generalized gradient approximations (GGAs) of Perdew and Wang for exchange [Phys. Rev. B 33, 8800 (1986)] and Perdew, Burke, and Ernzerhof for correlation [Phys. Rev. Lett. 77, 3865 (1996)] , plus the dispersion density functional of Becke and Johnson [J. Chem. Phys. 127, 154108 (2007)] , comprise a nonempirical density-functional theory of high accuracy for thermochemistry and van der Waals complexes. The theory is nonempirical except for two universal cutoff parameters in the dispersion energy. Our calculations so far have been grid-based and have employed the local density approximation (LDA) for the orbitals. In this work, we employ orbitals from self-consistent GGA calculations using Gaussian basis sets. The results, on a benchmark set of 65 van der Waals complexes, are similar to our grid-based post-LDA results. This work sets the stage for van der Waals force computations and geometry optimizations.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
