Abstract
We present the simulation of the photochemical dynamics of cyclobutanone induced by the excitation of the 3 s Rydberg state. For this purpose, we apply the complete active space self-consistent field method together with the spin-orbit multireference configuration interaction singles treatment, combined with the trajectory surface hopping for the inclusion of nonadiabatic effects. The simulations were performed in the spin-adiabatic representation, including nine electronic states derived from three singlet and two triplet spin-diabatic states. Our simulations reproduce the two previously observed primary dissociation channels: the C2 pathway yielding C2H4 + CH2CO and the C3 pathway producing c-C3H6 + CO. In addition, two secondary products, CH2 + CO from the C2 pathway and C3H6 from the C3 pathway, both of them previously reported, are also observed in our simulation. We determine the ratio of the C3:C2 products to be about 2.8. Our findings show that most of the trajectories reach their electronic ground state within 200 fs, with dissociation events finished after 300 fs. We also identify the minimum energy conical intersections that are responsible for the relaxation and provide an analysis of the photochemical reaction mechanism based on multidimensional scaling. Furthermore, we demonstrate a minimal impact of triplet states on the photodissociation mechanism within the observed timescale. In order to provide a direct link to experiments, we simulate the gas phase ultrafast electron diffraction patterns and connect their features to the underlying structural dynamics.

Abstract
Ab initio kinetic studies are important to understand and design novel chemical reactions. While the Artificial Force Induced Reaction (AFIR) method provides a convenient and efficient framework for kinetic studies, accurate explorations of reaction path networks incur high computational costs. In this article, we are investigating the applicability of Neural Network Potentials (NNP) to accelerate such studies. For this purpose, we are reporting a novel theoretical study of ethylene hydrogenation with a transition metal complex inspired by Wilkinson's catalyst, using the AFIR method. The resulting reaction path network was analyzed by the Generative Topographic Mapping method. The network's geometries were then used to train a state-of-the-art NNP model, to replace expensive ab initio calculations with fast NNP predictions during the search. This procedure was applied to run the first NNP-powered reaction path network exploration using the AFIR method. We discovered that such explorations are particularly challenging for general purpose NNP models, and we identified the underlying limitations. In addition, we are proposing to overcome these challenges by complementing NNP models with fast semiempirical predictions. The proposed solution offers a generally applicable framework, laying the foundations to further accelerate ab initio kinetic studies with Machine Learning Force Fields, and ultimately explore larger systems that are currently inaccessible.

Abstract
The long short-term memory recurrent neural network (LSTM-RNN) approach is applied to realize the trajectory-based nonadiabatic dynamics within the framework of the symmetrical quasi-classical dynamics method based on the Meyer-Miller mapping Hamiltonian (MM-SQC). After construction, the LSTM-RNN model allows us to propagate the entire trajectory evolutions of all involved degrees of freedoms (DOFs) from initial conditions. The proposed idea is proven to be reliable and accurate in the simulations of the dynamics of several site-exciton electron-phonon coupling models and three Tully's scattering models. It indicates that the LSTM-RNN model perfectly captures the dynamical information on the trajectory evolution in the MM-SQC dynamics. Our work proposes a novel machine learning approach in the simulation of trajectory-based nonadiabatic dynamic of complex systems with a large number of DOFs.

Abstract
We have recently developed the reaction space projector (ReSPer) method, which constructs a reduced-dimensionality reaction space uniquely determined from reference reaction paths for a polyatomic molecular system and projects classical trajectories into the same reaction space. In this paper, we extend ReSPer to the analysis of photoreaction dynamics and relaxation processes of stilbene and present the concept of a "multi-state energy landscape," incorporating the ground- and excited-state reaction subspaces. The multi-state energy landscape successfully explains the previously established photoreaction processes of cis-stilbene, such as the cis-trans photoisomerization and photocyclization. In addition, we discuss the difference in the excited-state reaction dynamics between stilbene and 1,1'-dimethyl stilbene based on a common reaction subspace determined from the framework part of reference structures with different number of atoms. This approach allows us to target any molecule with a common framework, greatly expanding the applicability of the ReSPer analysis. The multi-state energy landscape provides fruitful insight into photochemical reactions, exploring the excited- and ground-state potential energy surfaces, as well as comprehensive reaction processes with nonradiative transitions between adiabatic states, within the stage of a reduced-dimensionality reaction space.

Abstract
Chemiluminescence (CL) utilizing chemiexcitation for energy transformation is one of the most highly sensitive and useful analytical techniques. The chemiexcitation is a chemical process of a ground-state reactant producing an excited-state product, in which a nonadiabatic event is facilitated by conical intersections (CIs), the specific molecular geometries where electronic states are degenerated. Cyclic peroxides, especially 1,2-dioxetane/dioxetanone derivatives, are the iconic chemiluminescent substances. In this Perspective, we concentrated on the CIs in the CL of cyclic peroxides. We first present a computational overview on the role of CIs between the ground (S0) state and the lowest singlet excited (S1) state in the thermolysis of cyclic peroxides. Subsequently, we discuss the role of the S0/S1 CI in the CL efficiency and point out misunderstandings in some theoretical studies on the singlet chemiexcitations of cyclic peroxides. Finally, we address the challenges and future prospects in theoretically calculating S0/S1 CIs and simulating the dynamics and chemiexcitation efficiency in the CL of cyclic peroxides.

Abstract
The mixed quantum-classical dynamical simulation is essential for studying nonadiabatic phenomena in photophysics and photochemistry. In recent years, many machine learning models have been developed to accelerate the time evolution of the nuclear subsystem. Herein, we implement long short-term memory (LSTM) networks as a propagator to accelerate the time evolution of the electronic subsystem during the fewest-switches surface hopping (FSSH) simulations. A small number of reference trajectories are generated using the original FSSH method, and then the LSTM networks can be built, accompanied by careful examination of typical LSTM-FSSH trajectories that employ the same initial condition and random numbers as the corresponding reference. The constructed network is applied to FSSH to further produce a trajectory ensemble to reveal the mechanism of nonadiabatic processes. Taking Tully's three models as test systems, we qualitatively reproduced the collective results. This work demonstrates that LSTM can be applied to the most popular surface hopping simulations.

Abstract
Multiple applied studies of slow nonadiabatic processes in nanoscale and condensed matter systems have adopted the "repetition" approximation in which long trajectories for such simulations are obtained by concatenating shorter trajectories, directly available from ab initio calculations, many times. Here, we comprehensively assess this approximation using model Hamiltonians with parameters covering a wide range of regimes. We find that state transition time scales may strongly depend on the length of the repeated data, although the convergence is not monotonic and may be slow. The repetition approach may under- or overestimate the time scales by a factor of ≤7-8, does not directly depend on the dispersion of energy gap and nonadiabatic coupling (NAC) frequencies, but may depend on the magnitude of the NACs. We suggest that the repetition-based nonadiabatic dynamics may be inaccurate in simulations with very small NACs, where intrinsic transition times are on the order of ≥100 ps.

Newton-X is an open-source computational platform to
perform nonadiabatic
molecular dynamics based on surface hopping and spectrum simulations
using the nuclear ensemble approach. Both are among the most common
methodologies in computational chemistry for photophysical and photochemical
investigations. This paper describes the main features of these methods
and how they are implemented in Newton-X. It emphasizes the newest
developments, including zero-point-energy leakage correction, dynamics
on complex-valued potential energy surfaces, dynamics induced by incoherent
light, dynamics based on machine-learning potentials, exciton dynamics
of multiple chromophores, and supervised and unsupervised machine

Abstract
The analysis of the leading active molecular motions in the on-the-fly trajectory surface hopping simulation provides the essential information to understand the geometric evolution in nonadiabatic dynamics. When the ring deformation is involved, the identification of the key active coordinates becomes challenging. A "hierarchical" protocol based on the dimensionality reduction and clustering approaches is proposed for the automatic analysis of the ring deformation in the nonadiabatic molecular dynamics. The representative system keto isocytosine is taken as the prototype to illustrate this protocol. The results indicate that the current hierarchical analysis protocol is a powerful way to clearly clarify both the major and minor active molecular motions of the ring distortion in nonadiabatic dynamics.

Abstract
Machine learning (ML) has emerged as a formidable force for identifying hidden but pertinent patterns within a given data set with the objective of subsequent generation of automated predictive behavior. In recent years, it is safe to conclude that ML and its close cousin, deep learning (DL), have ushered in unprecedented developments in all areas of physical sciences, especially chemistry. Not only classical variants of ML, even those trainable on near-term quantum hardwares have been developed with promising outcomes. Such algorithms have revolutionized materials design and performance of photovoltaics, electronic structure calculations of ground and excited states of correlated matter, computation of force-fields and potential energy surfaces informing chemical reaction dynamics, reactivity inspired rational strategies of drug designing and even classification of phases of matter with accurate identification of emergent criticality. In this review we shall explicate a subset of such topics and delineate the contributions made by both classical and quantum computing enhanced machine learning algorithms over the past few years. We shall not only present a brief overview of the well-known techniques but also highlight their learning strategies using statistical physical insight. The objective of the review is not only to foster exposition of the aforesaid techniques but also to empower and promote cross-pollination among future research in all areas of chemistry which can benefit from ML and in turn can potentially accelerate the growth of such algorithms.

Abstract
Lead-free double perovskites hold promise for stable and environmentally benign solar cells; however, they exhibit low efficiencies because defects act as charge recombination centers. Identifying trap-assisted loss mechanisms and developing defect passivation strategies constitute an urgent goal. Applying unsupervised machine learning to density functional theory and nonadiabatic molecular dynamics, we demonstrate that negatively charged Br vacancies in Cs2AgBiBr6 create deep hole traps through charge redistribution between the adjacent Ag and Bi atoms. Vacancy electrons are first accepted by Bi and then shared with Ag, as the trap transforms from shallow to deep. Subsequent charge losses are promoted by Ag and Bi motions perpendicular to rather than along the Ag-Bi axis, as can be expected. In contrast, charge recombination in pristine Cs2AgBiBr6 correlates most with displacements of Cs atoms and Br-Br-Br angles. Doping with In to replace Ag at the vacancy maintains the electrons at Bi and keeps the trap shallow.

Abstract
To analyze chemical reaction dynamics based on a reaction path network, we have developed the "Reaction Space Projector" (ReSPer) method with the aid of the dimensionality reduction method. This program has two functions: the construction of a reduced-dimensionality reaction space from a molecular structure dataset, and the projection of dynamic trajectories into the low-dimensional reaction space. In this paper, we apply ReSPer to isomerization and bifurcation reactions of the Au5 cluster and succeed in analyzing dynamic reaction routes involved in multiple elementary reaction processes, constructing complicated networks (called "closed islands") of nuclear permutation-inversion (NPI) isomerization reactions, and elucidating dynamic behaviors in bifurcation reactions with reference to bundles of trajectories. Interestingly, in the second application, we find a correspondence between the contribution ratios in the ability to visualize and the symmetry of the morphology of closed islands. In addition, the third application suggests the existence of boundaries that determine the selectivity in bifurcation reactions, which was discussed in the phase space. The ReSPer program is a versatile and robust tool to clarify dynamic reaction mechanisms based on the reduced-dimensionality reaction space without prior knowledge of target reactions.

Abstract
A novel methodology for direct modeling of long-time scale nonadiabatic dynamics in extended nanoscale and solid-state systems is developed. The presented approach enables forecasting the vibronic Hamiltonians as a direct function of time via machine-learning models trained directly in the time domain. The use of periodic and aperiodic functions that transform time into effective input modes of the artificial neural network is demonstrated to be essential for such an approach to work for both abstract and atomistic models. The best strategies and possible limitations pertaining to the new methodology are explored and discussed. An exemplary direct simulation of unprecedentedly long 20 picosecond trajectories is conducted for a divacancy-containing monolayer black phosphorus system, and the importance of conducting such extended simulations is demonstrated. New insights into the excited states photophysics in this system are presented, including the role of decoherence and model definition.

Abstract
In the quantum chemical approach, chemical reaction mechanisms are investigated based on a potential energy surface (PES). Automated reaction path search methods enable us to construct a global reaction route map containing multiple reaction paths corresponding to a series of elementary reaction processes. The on-the-fly molecular dynamics (MD) method provides a classical trajectory exploring the full-dimensional PES based on electronic structure calculations. We have developed two reaction analysis methods, the on-the-fly trajectory mapping method and the reaction space projector (ReSPer) method, by introducing a structural similarity to a pair of geometric structures and revealed dynamic aspects affecting chemical reaction mechanisms. In this review, we will present the details of these analysis methods and discuss the dynamics effects of reaction path curvature and reaction path bifurcation with applications to the CH3OH + OH- collision reaction and the Au5 cluster branching and isomerization reactions.

Abstract
The understanding of the photochemistry of antibiotic compounds is important because it gives the direct information on the possible environmental pollution caused by them. Due to their large size, the theoretical studies of their excited-state reactions are rather challenging. In current work, we combined the on-the-fly trajectory surface-hopping dynamics, conical-intersection optimizations and excited-state pathway calculations to study the photochemistry of the trans-isomer of nitrofurantoin, a widely-used drug to treat the urinary tract infections. The dynamics-then-pathway approach was taken. First the trajectory surface hopping dynamics at the state-averaged complete-active-space self-consistent-field (SA-CASSCF) level with small active space and small basis sets were run. Second, the minimum-energy conical-intersection optimizations were performed. Finally the excited pathways from the Frank-Condon region to different reaction channels were built at the multi-state multi-reference second-order perturbation (MS-CASPT2) level with large active space and large basis set. Several possible channels responsible for the photo-induced reaction mechanism of the trans-nitrofurantoin were obtained, including the cleavage of the NO bond of the NO2 moiety, the photoisomerization at the central CN bond, and other internal conversion channels. Our findings give some preliminary explanations on available experimental observations. It is also demonstrates that the current theoretical approach is a powerful tool to explore the excited-state reactions in the photochemistry of media-sized or large-sized drug compounds.

Abstract
The application of artificial intelligence (AI) to chemistry has grown tremendously in recent years. In this Review, we studied the growth and distribution of AI-related chemistry publications in the last two decades using the CAS Content Collection. The volume of both journal and patent publications have increased dramatically, especially since 2015. Study of the distribution of publications over various chemistry research areas revealed that analytical chemistry and biochemistry are integrating AI to the greatest extent and with the highest growth rates. We also investigated trends in interdisciplinary research and identified frequently occurring combinations of research areas in publications. Furthermore, topic analyses were conducted for journal and patent publications to illustrate emerging associations of AI with certain chemistry research topics. Notable publications in various chemistry disciplines were then evaluated and presented to highlight emerging use cases. Finally, the occurrence of different classes of substances and their roles in AI-related chemistry research were quantified, further detailing the popularity of AI adoption in the life sciences and analytical chemistry. In summary, this Review offers a broad overview of how AI has progressed in various fields of chemistry and aims to provide an understanding of its future directions.

Abstract
Theoretical simulations of electronic excitations and associated processes in molecules are indispensable for fundamental research and technological innovations. However, such simulations are notoriously challenging to perform with quantum mechanical methods. Advances in machine learning open many new avenues for assisting molecular excited-state simulations. In this Review, we track such progress, assess the current state of the art and highlight the critical issues to solve in the future. We overview a broad range of machine learning applications in excited-state research, which include the prediction of molecular properties, improvements of quantum mechanical methods for the calculations of excited-state properties and the search for new materials. Machine learning approaches can help us understand hidden factors that influence photo-processes, leading to a better control of such processes and new rules for the design of materials for optoelectronic applications.

Abstract
The system-plus-bath model is an important tool to understand the nonadiabatic dynamics of large molecular systems. Understanding the collective motion of a large number of bath modes is essential for revealing their key roles in the overall dynamics. Here, we applied principal component analysis (PCA) to investigate the bath motion in the basis of a large dataset generated from the symmetrical quasi-classical dynamics method based on the Meyer-Miller mapping Hamiltonian nonadiabatic dynamics for the excited-state energy transfer in the Frenkel-exciton model. The PCA method clearly elucidated that two types of bath modes, which either display strong vibronic coupling or have frequencies close to that of the electronic transition, are important to the nonadiabatic dynamics. These observations were fully consistent with the physical insights. The conclusions were based on the PCA of the trajectory data and did not involve significant pre-defined physical knowledge. The results show that the PCA approach, which is one of the simplest unsupervised machine learning dimensionality reduction methods, is a powerful one for analyzing complicated nonadiabatic dynamics in the condensed phase with many degrees of freedom.

Abstract
The mixed quantum-classical dynamical approaches have been widely used to study nonadiabatic phenomena in photochemistry and photobiology, in which the time evolutions of the electronic and nuclear subsystems are treated based on quantum and classical mechanics, respectively. The key issue is how to deal with coherence and decoherence during the propagation of the two subsystems, which has been the subject of numerous investigations for a few decades. A brief description on Ehrenfest mean-field and surface-hopping (SH) methods is first provided, and then different algorithms for treatment of quantum decoherence are reviewed in the present paper. More attentions were paid to quantum trajectory mean-field (QTMF) method under the picture of quantum measurements, which is able to overcome the overcoherence problem. Furthermore, the combined QTMF and SH algorithm is proposed in the present work, which takes advantages of the QTMF and SH methods. The potential to extend the applicability of the QTMF method was briefly discussed, such as the generalization to other type of nonadiabatic transitions, the combination with multiscale computational models, and possible improvements on its accuracy and efficiency by using machine-learning techniques.

Abstract
Cyanobacteriochromes are compact and spectrally diverse photoreceptor proteins that are promising candidates for biotechnological applications. Computational studies can contribute to an understanding at a molecular level of their wide spectral tuning and diversity. In this contribution, we benchmark methods to model a 110 nm shift in the UV/Vis absorption spectrum from a red- to a green-absorbing form of the cyanobacteriochrome Slr1393g3. Based on an assessment of semiempirical methods to describe the chromophore geometries of both forms in vacuo, we find that DFTB2+D leads to structures that are the closest to the reference method. The benchmark of the excited state calculations is based on snapshots from quantum mechanics/molecular mechanics molecular dynamics simulations. In our case, the methods RI-ADC(2) and sTD-DFT based on CAM-B3LYP ground state calculations perform the best, whereas no functional can be recommended to simulate the absorption spectra of both forms with time-dependent density functional theory. Furthermore, the difference in absorption for the lowest energy absorption maxima of both forms can already be modelled with optimized structures, but sampling is required to improve the shape of the absorption bands of both forms, in particular for the second band. This benchmark study can guide further computational studies, as it assesses essential components of a protocol to model the spectral tuning of both cyanobacteriochromes and the related phytochromes.
