The paper proposes a new approach to modeling physical properties of molecules using machine learning, specifically incorporating SO(3)-covariance into molecular models. This is achieved by formulating and proving general completeness properties for higher-order methods, demonstrating that 6k-5 features are sufficient for up to k atoms. The authors also show that Clebsch-Gordan operations can be replaced with matrix multiplications, reducing the computational scaling from O(l^6) to O(l^3). This work has implications for quantum chemistry and other problems involving 3D point configurations.

Molecules are tiny building blocks of matter. Scientists want to understand their properties using computers. They use machine learning, a way that computers learn from data. The problem is that molecules have special shapes and movements in space. To model these accurately, we need computer algorithms that consider these 3D aspects. This paper shows how to do this more efficiently by replacing complicated mathematical operations with simpler ones. This can help scientists predict molecule properties better and faster. It’s useful for understanding the building blocks of life.
