Abstract
Data-driven interatomic potentials have emerged as a powerful tool for approximating ab initio potential energy surfaces. The most time-consuming step in creating these interatomic potentials is typically the generation of a suitable training database. To aid this process hyperactive learning (HAL), an accelerated active learning scheme, is presented as a method for rapid automated training database assembly. HAL adds a biasing term to a physically motivated sampler (e.g. molecular dynamics) driving atomic structures towards uncertainty in turn generating unseen or valuable training configurations. The proposed HAL framework is used to develop atomic cluster expansion (ACE) interatomic potentials for the AlSi10 alloy and polyethylene glycol (PEG) polymer starting from roughly a dozen initial configurations. The HAL generated ACE potentials are shown to be able to determine macroscopic properties, such as melting temperature and density, with close to experimental accuracy.

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 it
