Dynamics, MD) simulations. The approach functionally links the MD simulator with nonlinear manifold learning techniques. The added value comes from biasing the simulator towards new, unexplored phase space regions by exploiting the smoothness of the (gradually, as the exploration progresses) revealed intrinsic low-dimensional geometry of the FES. }, year = {2017}, journal = {arXiv.org, e-Print Arch., Phys.}, pages = {1-29}, publisher = {Cornell University Library}, url = {https://arxiv.org/abs/1701.01513v1}, language = {eng}, }
