TABLE III.
Mean absolute error of the binding energy from the 6 water trimers compared with BSSE corrected binding energies from PBE0/aug-cc-pVTZ (PBE0/6-311++G(d,p)).
QM | MM | MAE, Ebind |

---|---|---|---|
meV | kcal/mol | ||
PBE0 | AMOEBA | 76.80 (68.88) | 1.7711 (1.5885) |
PBE0 | TIP3P | 9.92 (1.54) | 0.2287 (0.0355) |
– | AMOEBA | 5.46 (39.36) | 0.1259 (0.9076) |
– | TIP3P | 63.84 (97.74) | 1.4724 (2.2540) |
These calculations are effectively measuring the error in the QM/MM interactions.
