Machine learning-based interatomic potentials enable accurate materials simulations on extended time- and length scales. ML potentials based on the atomic cluster expansion (ACE) framework have recently shown promising performance for this purpose. Here, we describe a largely automated computational approach to optimizing hyperparameters for ACE potential models. We extend our openly available Python package, XPOT, to include an interface for ACE fitting, and discuss the optimization of the functional form and complexity of these models based on systematic sweeps across relevant hyperparameters. We showcase the usefulness of the approach for two example systems: the covalent network of silicon and the phase-change material Sb2Te3. More generally, our work emphasizes the importance of hyperparameter selection in the development of advanced ML potential models. |
