Energy-based atomistic properties

Energy-based atomistic properties#

The energy-based properties are based on the energy terms of the xTB Hamiltonian. An atomistic partitioning is used to compute the properties. By exposing all terms of the energy term, a ML model could combine those terms to build a better fitting model. The following energy terms are computed:
