Understanding the excited state properties of molecules provides insights into how they interact with light. These interactions can be exploited to design compounds for photochemical applications, including enhanced spectral conversion of light to increase the efficiency of photovoltaic cells. While chemical discovery is time- and resource-intensive experimentally, computational chemistry can be used to screen large-scale databases for molecules of interest in a procedure known as high-throughput virtual screening. The first step usually involves a high-speed but low-accuracy method to screen large numbers of molecules (potentially millions) so only the best candidates are evaluated with expensive methods. However, use of a coarse first-pass screening method can potentially result in high false positive or false negative rates. Therefore, this study uses machine learning to calibrate a high-throughput technique (xTB-sTDA) against a higher accuracy one (TD-DFT). Testing the calibration model shows a ~5-fold decrease in error in-domain and a ~3-fold decrease out-of-domain. The resulting mean absolute error of ~0.14 eV is in line with previous work in machine learning calibrations and out-performs previous work in linear calibration of xTB-sTDA. We then apply the calibration model to screen a 250k molecule database and map inaccuracies of xTB-sTDA in chemical space. We also show generalizability of the workflow by calibrating against a higher-level technique (CC2), yielding a similarly low error. Overall, this work demonstrates machine learning can be used to develop a both cheap and accurate method for large-scale excited state screening, enabling accelerated molecular discovery across a variety of disciplines.

Background Quantum computing (QC) and quantum machine learning (QML) are promising experimental technologies which can improve precision medicine applications by reducing the computational complexity of algorithms driven by big, unstructured, real-world data. The clinical problem of knee osteoarthritis is that, although some novel therapies are safe and effective, the response is variable, and defining the characteristics of an individual who will respond remains a challenge. In this paper we tested a quantum neural network (QNN) application to support precision data-driven clinical decisions to select personalized treatments for advanced knee osteoarthritis. Methods Following patients consent and Research Ethics Committee approval, we collected clinico-demographic data before and after the treatment from 170 patients eligible for knee arthroplasty (Kellgren-Lawrence grade ≥ 3, OKS ≤ 27, Age ≥ 64 and idiopathic aetiology of arthritis) treated over a 2 year period with a single injection of microfragmented fat. Gender classes were balanced (76 M, 94 F) to mitigate gender bias. A patient with an improvement ≥ 7 OKS has been considered a Responder. We trained our QNN Classifier on a randomly selected training subset of 113 patients to classify responders from non-responders (73 R, 40 NR) in pain and function at 1 year. Outliers were hidden from the training dataset but not from the validation set. Results We tested our QNN Classifier on a randomly selected test subset of 57 patients (34 R, 23 NR) including outliers. The No Information Rate was equal to 0.59. Our application correctly classified 28 Responders out of 34 and 6 non-Responders out of 23 (Sensitivity = 0.82, Specificity = 0.26, F1 Statistic= 0.71). The Positive (LR+) and Negative (LR-) Likelihood Ratios were respectively 1.11 and 0.68. The Diagnostic Odds Ratio (DOR) was equal to 2. Conclusions Preliminary results on a small validation dataset show that quantum machine learning applied to data-driven clinical decisions for the personalized treatment of advanced knee osteoarthritis is a promising technology to reduce computational complexity and improve prognostic performance. Our results need further research validation with larger, real-world unstructured datasets, and clinical validation with an AI Clinical Trial to test model efficacy, safety, clinical significance and relevance at a public health level.

By representing elements as points in a low-dimensional chemical space it is possible to improve the performance of a machine-learning model for a chemically-diverse dataset. The resulting coordinates are reminiscent of the main groups of the periodic table.

AbstractThe prediction and design of photonic features have traditionally been guided by theory-driven computational methods, spanning a wide range of direct solvers and optimization techniques. Motivated by enormous advances in the field of machine learning, there has recently been a growing interest in developing complementary data-driven methods for photonics. Here, we demonstrate several predictive and generative data-driven approaches for the characterization and inverse design of photonic crystals. Concretely, we built a data set of 20,000 two-dimensional photonic crystal unit cells and their associated band structures, enabling the training of supervised learning models. Using these data set, we demonstrate a high-accuracy convolutional neural network for band structure prediction, with orders-of-magnitude speedup compared to conventional theory-driven solvers. Separately, we demonstrate an approach to high-throughput inverse design of photonic crystals via generative adversarial networks, with the design goal of substantial transverse-magnetic band gaps. Our work highlights photonic crystals as a natural application domain and test bed for the development of data-driven tools in photonics and the natural sciences.
