qcscine/chemoton: Release 2.0.0

Description

Python rewrite, and open source release with the following initial features:

  • Scriptable framework including a base set of features for the automated exploration of chemical reaction networks
  • Initial chemical reaction networks consisting of
    • Structures aggregated into Compounds
    • Elementary Steps aggregated into Reactions
    • Properties tagged to Structures
    • Calculations that generated the network
  • Definitions of Engines with perpetually running Gears to continuously perform tasks with chemical reaction networks (see list below)
  • Storage and expansion of chemical reaction networks in a SCINE Database
  • Automated job set up and execution via SCINE Puffin
  • Definitions of basic filters to reduce number of Elementary Step trials (see list below)

Initial Engines/Gears:

  • Basic bookkeeping jobs:
    • Sorting Structures into Compounds (BasicCompoundHousekeeping)
    • Sorting Elementary Steps into Reactions (BasicReactionHousekeeping)
    • Basic Scheduling and prioritization of Calculations (Scheduler)
  • Data completion jobs:
    • Conformer generation per compound (BruteForceConformers)
    • Hessian generation per transition state and minimum energy Structure (BasicThermoDataCompletion)
  • Elementary Step exploration based on existing Compounds:
    • For one Structure per Compound (MinimalElementarySteps):
      • Based on atoms/fragments (AFIR, NT1)
      • Based on bonds (NT2)
    • For all combinations of Structures per Compounds (BruteForceElementarySteps):
      • Based on atoms/fragments (AFIR, NT1)
      • Based on bonds (NT2)
  • Steering of network growth via simple kinetic analyses:
    • Based on connectivity to user input (MinimalConnectivityKinetics)
    • Based on barrier heights of Elementary Steps (BasicBarrierHeightKinetics)

Initial set of filters:

  • Compound filtering possible:
    • Base class, allows all compounds (CompoundFilter)
    • By element counts (ElementCountFilter, ElementSumCountFilter)
    • By atom counts or molecular weights (MolecularWeightFilter, AtomNumberFilter)
    • By database IDs (IDFilter, OneCompoundIDFilter, SelectedCompoundIDFilter)
    • By context (SelfReactionFilter)
    • By Hessian evaluation (TrueMinimumFilter)
    • By composition (CatalystFilter)
  • Reactive site filtering possible:
    • Base class, allows all reactive sites (ReactiveSiteFilter)
    • By fixed, simple rankings (SimpleRankingFilter, MasmChemicalRankingFilter)
    • By custom user rules (AtomRuleBasedFilter, FunctionalGroupRule)
    • By atom types (ElementWiseReactionCoordinateFilter)
  • All filters of the same type can be chained with logical operations to tailor the behaviour
