Semiempirical Quantum Chemistry in the Age of ab initio Data and Differentiable Programming: I. Differentiable Molecular Orbital Theory.

Semiempirical quantum chemistry (SQC) methods offer fast quantum chemical insights by constructing and solving a parametric effective minimal basis Fock matrix. Establishing suitable parametrizations has long been a challenging and time-consuming tas…
