[资源] 向大家推荐晶体结构预测软件-暮色（MUSE）--非常易用、准确、高效

暮色的算法描述：MUSE: Multi-algorithm collaborative crystal structure prediction, Computer Physics Communications 185 (2014) pp. 1893-1900

The source code has been released at:

http://sourceforge.net/projects/pymuse/

---------------------------------------------------

Description:

MUSE is short for Multi-algorithm-collaborative Universal Structure-prediction Environment, which was developed  for easy use in structure prediction of materials under ambient or extreme conditions, such as high pressure. It is written in Python and organically combins the multi algorithms including the evolutionary algorithm, the simulated annealing algorithm and the basin hopping algorithm to collaboratively search the global energy minimum of materials with the fixed stoichiometry. After introduced the competition in all the evolutionary and variation operators, the evolution of the crystal population and the choice of the operators are self-adaptive automatically, i.e. the crystal population undergoes the self-adaptive evolution process. So, it can very effectively predict materials' stable and metastable structures under certain conditions only provided the chemical information of the material. Its success rate is almost 100%.

---------------------------------------------------

Features:

Very easy to use

Multi-algorithm collaboration

Self-adaptive evolution

Ten evolutionary and variation operators competition

The symmetry constraints on the first generation

The elimination of duplicate structures by congruent-triangle fingerprint

Interfaced with VASP,  SIESTA, CASTEP, Quantum Espresso and LAMMPS

Almost 100% success rate
