Machine-learned (ML) operator models can be trained to predict density functional theory (DFT) Hamiltonian/density matrices at significantly reduced computational cost, thus extending electronic-structure calculations to previously unfeasible scales. Here, we introduce MALOQ (Massively Accelerated Learning of Operators for Quantum Transport), an application built to train on and predict electronic-structure matrices for systems made of few to 100k atoms, described by large basis sets, and covering a wide range of atomic elements. Based on a state-of-the-art, SO(2)-equivariant backbone architecture, MALOQ provides (i) custom data-processing kernels to handle high-rank Hamiltonian matrix data and (ii) a scalable edge-wise distribution of atomic graph(s). Trained on the largest molecular Hamiltonian datasets available today, it reduces time-per-epoch by over 30% compared to a molecule-wise-distributed framework, and enables inference on material graphs of arbitrary size. We demonstrate scalable training and inference for 3,000-12,000 atoms on the Alps supercomputer, up to 192 GPUs and 256 GPUs, respectively.
Emerging sustainable materials increasingly rely on engineered hierarchy and microstructure to achieve control of their properties and mechanical behavior. Optimizing these materials with controllable microstructures requires efficient multiscale simulations. Data-driven surrogat…
Foundation machine learning force fields (MLFFs) such as MACE-MP-0 and UMA cover broad chemical space at near density functional theory (DFT) accuracy. However, they assume equilibrium ground-state physics and do not natively handle externally induced changes to the electronic st…
Amorphous materials exhibit exceptional mechanical and functional properties, yet their rugged energy landscapes are notoriously difficult to sample. Below the glass-transition temperature, conventional molecular dynamics and Monte Carlo become inefficient because equilibration r…
Grain growth is governed by the reduction in grain boundary energy and exhibits well-established statistical scaling laws. Developing data-driven surrogates that preserve these physical invariants while remaining computationally scalable remains challenging, especially in 3D. We…
We present a comparative study of CUDA optimization strategies applied to forward and backward propagation in a shallow neural network. Three stacked optimizations are evaluated: (1) tiled shared memory with bank-conflict elimination via +1-column padding, (2) pre-transposed weig…
Accelerating materials discovery requires AI systems that can generate scientifically valid hypotheses through multi-step, domain-grounded reasoning. Standard large language models often produce fluent but weakly traceable responses to open-ended materials design problems, making…
