A DFT-SOFM-RBFNN method is proposed to improve the accuracy of DFT calculations on Y-NO (Y = C, N, O, S) homolysis bond dissociation energies (BDE) by combining density functional theory (DFT) and artificial intelligence/machine learning methods, which consist of self-organizing feature mapping neural networks (SOFMNN) and radial basis function neural networks (RBFNN). A descriptor refinement s...

The quantitative influence of the choice of energy evaluation method used in the geometry optimization step prior to the calculation of molecular descriptors in QSAR and QSPR models was investigated. A total of 11 energy evaluation methods on three molecular datasets (toxicological compounds, aromatic compounds and PPARgamma agonists) were studied. The methods employed were: MMFF94 s, MM3* with...

Density-functional theory ~DFT! calculations of indirect nuclear magnetic resonance spin–spin coupling tensors J, with the anisotropic but symmetric parts being the particular concern, are carried out for a series of molecules with the linear response ~LR! method. For the first time, the anisotropic components of J are reported for a hybrid functional. Spin–spin tensors calculated using the loc...

Recently, a novel, neural-networks-based method, the DFT-NEURON method, was developed to improve the accuracy of first-principles calculations and was applied to correct the systematic deviations of the calculated heats of formation for small-to-medium-sized organic molecules (Hu, L. H.; Wang, X. J.; Wong, L. H.; Chen, G. H. J. Chem. Phys. 2003, 119, 11501). In this work, we examine its theoret...

Particulate contamination formed by homogeneous clustering reactions of silicon hydrides within silicon chemical vapor deposition processes is an important source of yield loss during semiconductor processing. On the other hand, intentional synthesis of silicon nanoparticles may be of great interest because of the unique optical and electronic properties of nanostructured silicon. Kinetic model...

In this paper,N-(2-Fluorophenyl)-2,6-dimethyl-1,3-dioxan-4-amine (C12H16FNO2) optimized geometries and frequencies of the stationary point and energies in the ground state using DFT (B3LYP) methods with 6-311Gbasis set. The calculated HOMO and LUMO energies also confirmed that the charge transfer occurred within the molecule. Bond length and bond angles values forC12H16FNO2 were calculated by u...

Enol forms of trifluoroacetylacetone (TFacac) isolated in molecular and rare gas matrices were studied using infrared (IR) Raman spectroscopy. Additionally, calculations DFT B3LYP M06...
