I (Filippo Vicentini) am recruiting for two positions to work with me on machine-learning simulation of correlated quantum matter and quantum chemistry, using Neural Quantum States (NQS) and related ML-based methods. Both positions are hosted in the fundamental research laboratory of Mistral AI, the top-tier AI company based in Paris, where I lead the effort on ML-based simulation methods for quantum systems, and collaborate with other researchers to bridge those methods to coarser-scale simulations....

We are proud to announce the release of NetKet 3.22, which is a remarkably large release including a lot off new features arising from research done by Ph.D. students and Postdocs working with NetKet. In particular, we now have new MCMC convergence-diagnostic tools, multi-GPU SR solvers, richer symmetry utilities, and much more. We would like to highlight the following features, which are discussed below, but the (quite long) full list of changes is in the CHANGELOG....

I would like to share an opening at Ecole Polytechnique for a full-time tenure-track Assistant Professor position in Computational Physics and Artificial Intelligence. This is an excellent opportunity for researchers working at the interface of computational physics, machine learning, and artificial intelligence. The successful candidate will develop an independent research program in one of the laboratories of the Physics Department, with strong interactions with applied mathematics and/or computer science. The position is also connected to the Hi!...

NetKet is participating in the 2022 edition of UnitaryHack, kindly sponsored by the quantum non-profit Unitary Fund. The hackathon will run for two weeks, from Friday, June 3 to Friday, June 17. During the hackathon, several high-profile quantum software projects are each proposing several tasks for which Unitary Fund will provide a bounty to the participant completing the task. NetKet is participating with 4 bounties to this hackathon, which are worth US$ 300 in total....

18 months in development, NetKet 3.0 indicates a major new step for the NetKet project. NetKet has been totally rewritten in Python and is now a Jax-based library. This guarantees outstanding performance while allowing researchers to exploit machine-learning frameworks to define advanced Neural-Networks. GPUs and Google’s TPUs are now supported too! Update now and try the new examples!
