In the ML4Simulations' Group, led by Dr. Huziel E. Sauceda, we work on the development and application of machine learning-based methods to accelerate predictive materials and molecular systems' simulations. On the machine learning side, the main research topics are the development of physics-based machine-learned force fields (interatomic potentials) and physical time-series interpolation and forecasting. On the application's part, we are interested in understanding the implications of the nuclear quantum effects (i.e. treating atomic nuclei as quantum particles) on the physical properties of materials and molecular systems.
Our group is based in the vibrant Mexico City, at Instituto de Física of the Universidad Nacional Autonoma de México (UNAM).
