About ↑
Q-stack is a stack of codes for dedicated pre- and post-processing tasks for Quantum Machine Learning (QML). It is a work in progress. Stay tuned for updates!
For now, we link to the relevant packages that will be incorporated (among others):
- https://github.com/lcmd-epfl/azo-xcite-tools
- https://github.com/lcmd-epfl/SPAHM
- https://github.com/lcmd-epfl/RHO-Decomposition
- https://github.com/lcmd-epfl/ml-density
- https://github.com/lcmd-epfl/OTPD-basis
- https://github.com/lcmd-epfl/b2r2-reaction-rep
Install ↑
The installation of the library for python use can be done executing one of the following commands:
python -m pip install git+https://github.com/lcmd-epfl/Q-stack.git
python -m pip install "qstack @ git+https://github.com/lcmd-epfl/Q-stack.git"
python -m pip install "qstack[all] @ git+https://github.com/lcmd-epfl/Q-stack.git"
The last one is recommended if you do not know which features you wish to use, since they pull the dependencies required with all 'optional' parts of Q-stack.
If you want to be able to edit Q-stack's code after installing, you need to download it yourself, for instance with this series of commands
git clone https://github.com/lcmd-epfl/Q-stack
cd Q-stack
#optionally, run the following line, if you want to be extra-careful about reproducibility, by installing a well-known version of all dependencies
python -m pip install -r requirements.py3.11.txt # (or "requirements.py3.9.txt" if you have an older version of python and that first file doesn't work)
python -m pip install -e .[all] # note: this translates as "install as '-e'ditable, install from this directory ('.'), with optional feature 'all'"
For the optional step above, we also have an environment.yml
file available, if you prefer working with conda environments.
A small part of Q-stack, isolated in the qstack_qml
module name, can be installed on its own, see the qstack-qml subdirectory's readme.
Examples ↑
Q-stack comes with several example codes that illustrate some of its key capabilities. To run the examples, go to the example folder and run the following commands:
- Field decomposition:
python example_deco.py
- Computation of Hirshfeld charges:
python example_hirsh.py
- Basis set optimization:
python example_opt.py
- Generation of the SPAHM representation:
python example_SPAHM.py
- An example for the structure-based reaction representations (
$B^2R^2$ and$\mathrm{SLATM}_d$ ) will follow shortly
