HydraGNN v5.0
HydraGNN v5.0 expands the code base into a more portable, scalable, and flexible framework for scientific graph learning, with particular strength in atomistic machine-learning interatomic potentials and large-scale distributed training. The release adds Fully Sharded Data Parallel (FSDP) support alongside existing DDP and DeepSpeed paths, including FSDP-aware checkpointing and optimizer integration, and introduces a configurable multi-precision training workflow supporting FP32, BF16, and FP64 across GPUs and Intel XPUs. For atomistic modeling, HydraGNN v5.0 strengthens its MLIP capabilities through dynamic graph construction at every forward pass, energy-conserving force prediction via automatic differentiation, and per-atom energy loss formulations, while extending EGNN models to properly handle periodic boundary conditions. The release also broadens model expressiveness through graph-level attribute conditioning, adds new multi-task and model-parallel extensions such as MACE support and encoder/decoder branch optimization, and expands application coverage with integrated examples for datasets including OC25, Nabla2-DFT, QCML, Open Polymers 2026, and OPF. In parallel, HydraGNN v5.0 improves production readiness through performance optimizations for large-scale runs, stratified sampling and linear-regression preprocessing utilities, and tested installation scripts for DOE supercomputers including Frontier, Aurora, Perlmutter, and Andes. Overall, the release advances HydraGNN as a robust software platform for scalable graph neural networks across materials science, chemistry, and scientific machine learning workflows
