Data-driven Effective Modeling of Stochastic Chemical Reaction Networks

Read the original on arXiv Machine Learning →

The paper introduces a data-driven effective model for stochastic chemical reaction networks that bypasses the high computational cost of the Stochastic Simulation Algorithm (SSA). By approximating the finite-time transition kernel of the SSA-induced continuous-time Markov chain with a generative machine learning model, the method operates on a user-defined coarse time step independent of microscopic reaction events. Using a conditional normalizing flow as the stochastic propagator, the trained model recursively generates statistically consistent trajectories, achieving significant computational savings while maintaining accuracy, as demonstrated through numerous numerical examples.

Machine learning kinetics from molecular dynamics data

The article reviews modern machine learning techniques for estimating the committor and related kinetic statistics from molecular dynamics simulations. It emphasizes self‑supervised methods that solve the underlying dynamical equations instead of relying on labeled data, and unifies various approaches—generator‑based PDEs, variational principles, Markov state models, dynamical Galerkin approximation, and neural networks—under a common operator framework. The review also discusses practical guidance for handling non‑Markovian effects, sampling strategies, and outlines future research directions such as connections to reinforcement learning and generative modeling.

Strong Stochastic Flow Maps

arXiv:2606. 01086v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Flow and diffusion models generate high-quality samples in many modalities; however, many network evaluations are required during inference due to numerical integration of an underlying differential equation.

Correlation-Free Transition Path Sampling through Shooting Point Generation Guided by Committor Learning

The paper introduces GenAIMMD, an iterative algorithm that learns the committor function and trains a conditioned Boltzmann Generator to generate uncorrelated transition paths without prior knowledge of the reaction coordinate. This method combines transition path sampling with committor learning, enabling fully parallelizable sampling. Benchmarks on a toy model and a polymer system show a substantial performance improvement over standard TPS.
