A new paper explores how symmetry impacts the scaling laws of neural networks in the context of learning interatomic potentials. The research indicates that equivariant architectures, which incorporate task-specific symmetries, demonstrate superior scaling behavior compared to non-equivariant models. Furthermore, the study suggests that for optimal training efficiency, data and model sizes should be scaled concurrently, irrespective of the chosen architecture. AI
