Abstract
In this talk I will describe the Atomic Cluster Expansion (ACE) which provides a systematic framework to derive a formally complete set of symmetric polynomial basis functions. I will show that using the ACE features and linear regression we can create highly accurate and fast force fields. I will also show some recent results of using equivariant ACE for the fitting of vectorial properties, such as dipole moments. Finally, I will briefly present multi-ACE, a framework unifying most existing machine learning force fields, including local models like SOAP -GAP and the message passing neural networks.
