Machine Learning Helps Create Detailed, Efficient Models of Water

#artificialintelligence

How water acts affects everything from storm clouds to ice sheets. Computer scientists want to model water's various properties. Accurate and computationally efficient molecular-level descriptions of large samples of ice-water systems are difficult to build. The numerous molecules and various timescales remain a challenge despite advances in computing hardware. Now, a team developed machine-learning–based water models that correctly predict water's key features, such as the melting point of ice.
