Description: This tag specifies whether coupling parameters are used for the calculation of chemical potentials is used or not within the machine learning force field method.
In thermodynamic integration a coupling parameter Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://www.vasp.at/wiki/restbase/vasp.at/v1/":): {\displaystyle \lambda } is introduced to the Hamiltonian to smoothly switch between a "non-interacting" reference state and a "fully-interacting" state. The change of the free energy along this path is written as

Using machine learning force fields the Hamiltonian can be written as

For thermodynamic integration the following parameters have to be set:
- ML_FF_LCOUPLE_MB=.TRUE.
- The number of atoms for which a coupling parameter is introduced (Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://www.vasp.at/wiki/restbase/vasp.at/v1/":): {\displaystyle i \notin M } ): ML_FF_NATOM_COUPLED_MB.
