Software Architecture

It is recommended to use Python 3.10 or higher. Older versions might cause type errors. We also recommend using GPUMD version 3.9.5 or higher.

Usage

Modify the vim ~/.NepTrain file to change the pseudopotential file path. If this file doesn't exist, simply run NepTrain init once to generate it.

Creating Training Set (Optional)

Generate a perturbation training set for structures or structure files.

For example, apply a 0.03 lattice distortion and 0.1 atomic perturbation:

NepTrain perturb ./structure/Cs16Ag8Bi8I48.vasp --num 2000 --cell 0.03 -d 0.1  
NepTrain select perturb.xyz -max 100  

1. Initialization

First, initialize NepTrain. This will create a submission script in the current directory:

NepTrain init

3. Submit Job

After modifying the submission script and job configuration, you can submit the job by running the following command on a login node:

NepTrain train job.yaml

For running the job in the background, use nohup

nohup NepTrain train job.yaml &

If the job is interrupted, there will be a restart.yaml file in the directory. To resume the job, run:

NepTrain train restart.yaml
