Class to store the elements, coordinates, fragmentation pattern, charge, multiplicity of a molecule. Largely replicates psi4’s libmints Molecule class, developed by Justin M. Turney and Andy M. Simmonett with incremental improvements by other psi4 developers. Major

This class extends qcdb.LibmintsMolecule and occasionally psi4.core.Molecule itself.

class qcelemental.models.types.Array[source]
qcelemental.molutil.B787(cgeom, rgeom, cuniq, runiq, do_plot=False, verbose=1, atoms_map=False, run_resorting=False, mols_align=False, run_to_completion=False, algorithm='hungarian_uno', uno_cutoff=0.001, run_mirror=False)[source]

Use Kabsch algorithm to find best alignment of geometry cgeom onto rgeom while sampling atom mappings restricted by runiq and cuniq.

Parameters

  • rgeom (ndarray) – (nat, 3) array of reference/target/unchanged geometry. Assumed [a0] for RMSD purposes.

  • cgeom (ndarray) – (nat, 3) array of concern/changeable geometry. Assumed [a0] for RMSD purposes. Must have same nat, units, and atom content as rgeom.

  • runiq (ndarray) – (nat,) array of str indicating which rows (atoms) in rgeom are shuffleable without changing the molecule. Generally hashes of element symbol and mass are used, but could be as simple as [‘C’, ‘H’, ‘H’, ‘D’, ‘H’] for monodeuterated methane.

  • cuniq (ndarray) – (nat,) array of str indicating which rows (atoms) in cgeom are shuffleable. See runiq for more details. Strings and count in cuniq must match runiq. That is, sorted(cuniq) == sorted(runiq).

  • do_plot (bool) – Pops up a mpl plot showing before, after, and ref geometries.

  • verbose (int) – Quantity of printing. 0 to silence.

  • atoms_map (bool) – Whether atom1 of rgeom already corresponds to atom1 of cgeom and so on. If True, no resorting will be run, parameters runiq and cuniq may be passed as None, and much time will be saved.

  • run_resorting (bool) – Run the resorting machinery even if unnecessary because atoms_map=True.

  • mols_align (Union[bool, float]) – Whether ref_mol and concern_mol have identical geometries by eye (barring orientation or atom mapping) and expected final RMSD = 0. If True, procedure is truncated when RMSD condition met, saving time. If float, convcrit at which search for minimium truncates.

  • run_to_completion (bool) – Run reorderings to completion (past RMSD = 0) even if unnecessary because mols_align=True. Used to test worst-case timings.

  • algorithm (str) – {‘hungarian_uno’, ‘permutative’} When atoms_map=False, screening algorithm for plausible atom mappings. permutative suitable only for small systems.

  • uno_cutoff (float) – TODO

  • run_mirror (bool) – Run alternate geometries potentially allowing best match to rgeom from mirror image of cgeom. Only run if system confirmed to be nonsuperimposable upon mirror reflection.

Returns

First item is RMSD [A] between rgeom and the optimally aligned geometry computed. Second item is a AlignmentMill with fields (shift, rotation, atommap, mirror) that prescribe the transformation from cgeom and the optimally aligned geometry.

Return type

float, tuple

Compose a Molecule dict from unvalidated arrays and variables, returning dict.

See fields of Return molrec below. Required parameters (for QM XYZ) are geom and one of elem, elez, elbl (speclabel=True)

Parameters

  • geom (Union[List[List[float]], numpy.ndarray]) – (nat, 3) or (3 * nat, ) ndarray or list o’lists of Cartesian coordinates.

  • fragment_separators (Union[List[int], numpy.ndarray]) – (nfr - 1, ) list of atom indices at which to split geom into fragments.

  • elbl (Union[List[str], numpy.ndarray]) – (nat, ) Label extending elem symbol, possibly conveying ghosting, isotope, mass, tagging information.

  • tooclose (float) – Interatom distance (native geom units) nearer than which atoms not allowed.

  • nonphysical (bool) – Do allow masses outside an element’s natural range to pass validation?

  • speclabel (bool) – If True, interpret elbl as potentially full nucleus spec including ghosting, isotope, mass, tagging information, e.g., @13C_mine or He4@4.01. If False, interpret elbl as only the user/tagging extension to nucleus label, e.g. _mine or 4 in the previous examples.

  • missing_enabled_return (str) – {‘minimal’, ‘none’, ‘error’} What to do when an enabled domain is of zero-length? Respectively, return a fully valid but empty molrec, return empty dictionary, or throw error.

  • np_out (bool) – When True, fields geom, elea, elez, elem, mass, real, elbl will be ndarray. Use False to get a json-able version.

Returns

  • molrec (dict) – Molecule dictionary spec follows. Its principles are

    (1) contents are fully validated and defaulted - no error checking necessary,

    (2) contents may be mildly redundant - atomic numbers and element symbols present,

    (3) big system, nat-length single-type arrays, not small system, nat-number heterogeneous objects,

    (4) some fields are optional (e.g., fix_symmetry) but largely self-describing so units or fix_com must be present.

    (5) apart from some mild optional fields, _all_ fields will be present (corollary of “fully validated and defaulted”) - no need to check for every key. in some cases like efp, keys will appear in blocks, so pre-handshake there will be a few hint keys and post-handshake they will be joined by full qm-like molrec.

    (6) molrec should be idempotent through this function (equiv to schema validator) but are not idempotent throughout its life. if fields permit, frame may be changed. Future? if fields permit, mol may be symmetrized. Coordinates and angles may change units or range if program returns them in only one form.
