Machine learning Hubbard parameters with equivariant neural networks by Martin Uhrin, Austin Zadoks, Luca Binci, Nicola Marzari, Iurii Timrov

“…Abstract Density-functional theory with extended Hubbard functionals (DFT + U + V) provides a robust framework to accurately describe complex materials containing transition-metal or rare-earth elements. It does so by mitigating self-interaction errors inherent to semi-local functionals which are particularly pronounced in systems with partially-filled d and f electronic states. …”
