Investigate GROMACS builtin early stopping capabilities #111
Comments
GROMACS, a molecular dynamics package primarily designed for simulating proteins, lipids, and nucleic acids, does not have a direct "early stopping" feature like those found in machine learning frameworks. However, it does support various ways to control and stop simulations based on certain conditions, which can be somewhat similar to early stopping. Here's a breakdown of how you can manage this:
To conclude, while GROMACS does not support automatic early stopping based on internal criteria like convergence, users can implement custom monitoring and stopping mechanisms using external scripts and checkpointing features. Checking and analyzing the output files regularly during the simulation will be crucial for making decisions about stopping early. |
Instead of implementing ES logic externally we prefer to use GROMACS to do this. This should reduce bugginess, instability and complexity.
