A machine learning based classifier for topological quantum materials by Ashiqur Rasul, Md Shafayat Hossain, Ankan Ghosh Dastider, Himaddri Roy, M. Zahid Hasan, Quazi D. M. Khosru

“…A major bottleneck in this field is the computational resources and time complexity related to finding new materials from ab initio calculations. In this work, an effective and robust deep learning-based model is proposed by incorporating persistent homology with graph neural network which offers an accuracy of $$91.4\%$$ 91.4 % and an F1 score of $$88.5\%$$ 88.5 % in classifying topological versus non-topological materials, outperforming the other state-of-the-art classifier models. …”

Thiamine and Thiamine Pyrophosphate as Non-Competitive Inhibitors of Acetylcholinesterase—Experimental and Theoretical Investigations by Łukasz Szeleszczuk, Dariusz Maciej Pisklak, Błażej Grodner

“…The mechanisms of action of these compounds as potential inhibitors of AChE were evaluated using both experimental (enzymatic activity) as well as computational (molecular docking, molecular dynamics simulations, and MM-GBSA calculations) methods. The results of the current study indicate a non-competitive type of enzyme inhibition, in contrast to the previously published works suggesting a competitive one.…”
