Abstract

Kirkpatrick et al . (Reports, 9 December 2021, p. 1385) trained a neural network–based DFT functional, DM21, on fractional-charge (FC) and fractional-spin (FS) systems, and they claim that it has outstanding accuracy for chemical systems exhibiting strong correlation. Here, we show that the ability of DM21 to generalize the behavior of such systems does not follow from the published results and requires revisiting.
