AI‑Driven Quantum Refinement: AQuaRef Enables Full‑Atom Protein Model Optimization with Quantum Constraints
A collaborative team from Carnegie Mellon, Wrocław, and Florida universities introduced AQuaRef, an AI‑powered quantum refinement method that leverages the AIMNet2 machine‑learning potential to achieve near‑classical‑force‑field speed while closely approximating quantum‑mechanical results for full‑atom protein models, outperforming traditional restraints on low‑resolution structures.
