A novel method is presented for computing the ground state in finite-size quantum many-body systems using configuration interaction (CI) enhanced by machine learning. Our recently developed Python library Solax [1] is used for this purpose. A neural network classifier is trained to select an efficient many-body basis in an iterative procedure. It addresses the exponential growth of the Hilbert space while maintaining accuracy. Validation with the Single Impurity Anderson Model shows a basis reduction by at least an order of magnitude compared to standard truncation schemes [2]. Application to the N2 molecule with ≤ 2× 105 Slater determinants, gives results comparable to full CI calculations with nearly 1010 determinants [3]. We aim to extend this method to multi-tier embedding schemes for predicting critical energy scales in heterogeneous catalysis.
