Researchers have developed AdaptNTK, a novel framework for quantifying uncertainty and implementing active learning in neural network potentials. This single-model approach uses a regularized Mahalanobis distance in empirical neural tangent kernel (NTK) feature space to estimate uncertainty, which can be updated recursively without retraining. AdaptNTK demonstrates strong performance on molecular dynamics simulations, achieving high correlations with force errors and outperforming ensemble methods in active learning experiments on datasets like rMD17 and Transition-1X, particularly for transition-state configurations.
