Episode 6: In this episode, we explore ML models that have equivariant representations. These model representations are quite fascinating, since they change predictably given changes in the input. For instance, if the input atoms are rotated, the model’s internal representation will also “rotate”. We’ll discuss how a special set of basis functions called spherical harmonics are used in equivariant models to represent atom neighborhoods and what makes them so mathematically interesting.
This video series is aimed at machine learning and AI researchers interested in gaining a better understanding of how to explore machine learning problems in chemistry and material science.
