The rise of machine learning for functional design is discussed and whether this signals the end of human-designed functionals remains to be seen.
Over the past decade machine learning has made significant advances in approximating density functionals, but whether this signals the end of human-designed functionals remains to be seen. Ryan Pederson, Bhupalee Kalita and Kieron Burke discuss the rise of machine learning for functional design.
