Statistical learning goes beyond the d-band model providing the thermochemistry of adsorbates on transition metals

Assessing catalytic mechanisms using DFT calculations greatly aids catalyst design, but is impractical for large molecules. Here the authors develop a statistical learning-based thermochemical model for estimating adsorption of organics onto metals, retaining DFT accuracy while reducing the number o...
