Pair exclude_types as a canonical NeighborGraph transform

Stacked on #5715 (NeighborGraph PR-D). Only the commits after 6fc45bd26 belong to this PR; will rebase onto master once #5715 merges.

Makes pair-type exclusion a single canonical transform applied once at the neighbor-list/graph build seam, and uses it to add descriptor-level exclude_types support to the dpa1 graph path (removing that eligibility gate), consistently across dpmodel, pt_expt, jax, and the C++ inference path.

What changed

  • Canonical graph transform apply_pair_exclusion(graph, atype, pair_excl, *, compact=False) in deepmd/dpmodel/utils/neighbor_graph/: ANDs PairExcludeMask.build_edge_exclude_mask into graph.edge_mask. compact=False is mask-only (shape-static, export/AOTI-safe); compact=True drops masked edges (eager-only; raises on angle-carrying graphs). Idempotent.
  • Atomic-model seam (base_atomic_model): model-level pair_exclude_types is applied at BUILD time, so forward_common_atomic{,_graph} no longer re-apply it — they consume a pre-excluded nlist/graph (single-owner, not a backstop). To keep that from being fail-open, an eager (numpy) fail-safe assertion (_assert_nlist_pair_excluded / _assert_graph_pair_excluded) rejects a non-excluded input at the seam with a clear error; it is a no-op under torch.export / jax jit and in compiled production (the exported-.pt2 / C++ paths are covered by ingestion-site tests). See the ingestion-path inventory below.
  • dpa1 graph path supports descriptor-level exclude_types: the NotImplementedError and the uses_graph_lower() exclude condition are removed; exclusion applied inside DescrptBlockSeAtten.call_graph before the segment sums. Graph-vs-dense parity at non-binding sel is exact (rtol=atol=1e-12, attn_layer 0 and 2, type_one_side both).
  • Build-time exclusion (dispatcher): build_neighbor_graph and the pt_expt graph builders (dense/ase/vesin/nv) gain optional pair_excl/compact with default post-search application; _call_common_graph passes model-level excludes at build time; oracle set-equality tests per available builder.
  • Dense-nlist port: apply_pair_exclusion_nlist(nlist, atype_ext, pair_excl) extracted from the inline seam code; build_neighbor_list + Vesin/Nv/Default strategies gain pair_excl; return_mode='edges' + pair_excl fails fast.
  • C++ twin: buildPairExcludeTable / applyPairExclusion / applyPairExclusionNlist in source/api_cc/include/commonPT.h, mirroring the Python transforms (same arg order/variable names, cross-referenced docs); pair_exclude_types serialized into .pt2 metadata.json and rebuilt once in DeepPotPTExpt::init (device-resident table, uploaded once — no per-step H2D). Exclusion is applied at the C++ ingestion seam — the single owner on every run path; the exported lower consumes a pre-excluded input and never re-applies it. New gtest (8 tests) vs Python DeepEval reference at 1e-10, plus multi-rank LAMMPS exclusion tests (below).
  • Fix: apply_pair_exclusion uses logical_and + bool cast (array_api_strict rejected bool*bool), caught by the jax/strict consistency rows now traversing the graph path.

Ingestion-path inventory (exclusion coverage)

Because the seam is now the single owner (fail-open if skipped), here is every entry point that builds a nlist/graph reaching the exclusion-owning lower, and how each applies exclusion:

Entry point Applies exclusion at Coverage
dpmodel _call_common (dense) build_neighbor_list(pair_excl=) eager guard + consistency rows
dpmodel _call_common_graph build_neighbor_graph(pair_excl=) eager guard + graph/dense parity
dpmodel descriptor-level exclude_types apply_pair_exclusion in call_graph dpa1 graph parity
pt_expt DeepEval — nlist apply_pair_exclusion_nlist / vesin pair_excl parity vs dpmodel
pt_expt DeepEval — graph _build_eval_graph(pair_excl=) (dense/ase/vesin/nv) parity vs dpmodel
pt_expt/jax/pd training build_neighbor_graph(pair_excl=) in stat/forward training e2e
input statistics build_neighbor_list(pair_excl=) in EnvMatStatSe.iter stat tests (hash key = follow-up, pre-existing)
jax-md call_lower apply_pair_exclusion_nlist at the seam (fixed here) test_dense_neighbor_applies_model_pair_exclusion
C++ SP dense applyPairExclusionNlist gtest
C++ MP dense (with-comm) applyPairExclusionNlist (fixed here) DPA3 MP≡SP + active-vs-baseline
C++ SP graph applyPairExclusion gtest
C++ MP graph (non-MP, extended) applyPairExclusion dpa1 MP≡SP + active-vs-baseline
C++ MP graph (message-passing) fail-fast (PR-G)
C++ / DeepEval edge lower (SeZM/DPA4) baked into the exported graph by the pt backend (unchanged) out of scope — pt-backend export

Guard: forward_common_atomic{,_graph} additionally carry an eager fail-safe assertion (numpy only) that rejects a non-excluded input, so any future dpmodel/jax ingestion miss fails loudly instead of silently including excluded pairs.

Known limitations

  • nv builder's pair_excl path has no local oracle test (CUDA-only); to be validated on a GPU box.
  • Input statistics remain on the dense path (graph-native stats is a separate follow-on); the stat-cache hash key does not yet include pair_exclude_types — pre-existing (predates this PR) and tracked as a separate fix.
  • smooth_type_embedding + exclude parity untestable at 1e-12 (pre-existing dense sel-padding divergence, feat(dpmodel): graph-native se_atten attention (NeighborGraph PR-D) #5715).
  • build_edge_exclude_mask still returns int32 (bool cast at call sites; follow-up).

Spin routing

Spin models auto-inject exclude_types (virtual/placeholder types) into their backbone descriptor; before this PR that condition accidentally kept spin on the dense path. With exclude_types now graph-eligible, spin backbones flipped onto the carry-all graph route, which (a) diverges from the sel-capped reference on sel-binding spin systems and (b) trips a torch-inductor scatter codegen assertion during spin .pt2 export. Fixed explicitly: DescrptDPA1.disable_graph_lower() (not serialized; re-derived structurally) is set in SpinModel.__init__ — the single choke point covering get_spin_model, SpinModel.deserialize, and the pt_expt spin classes — plus a belt-and-braces neighbor_graph_method="legacy" at SpinModel.call_common. Regression tests pin the routing and its serialize→deserialize survival; the full spin export suite (23) and spin checkpoint-interop suite (12) are green.

Verification

Full pt_expt suite: 1196 passed / 39 skipped / 3 failed — the 3 failures (test_dpa4_freeze_to_pt2, test_dpa4_deep_eval_*) are byte-identical on the base commit (pre-existing torch-inductor dpa4 export issue on this box, unrelated). dpmodel exclusion suites 69 passed; consistency dpa1 99 passed/63 skipped (incl. jax + array_api_strict exclude rows); C++ Dpa1PairExcl gtest 8/8.

Pass mapping to torch.export.export here

test_exportable still goes through the dense fallback because TestCaseSingleFrameWithNlist sets nloc=3 and nall=4, while this export call passes no mapping. That means the new exclude_types case only covers the legacy dense exclusion mask, not the graph-native apply_pair_exclusion path. Add mapping to the exported inputs so the parametrization exercises the intended route.

Docstring update looks accurate; stale example nearby.

Matches the new DPA1 graph-native attention behavior (attention layers now included in graph eligibility). Note the unchanged _call_common_graph exception message a few dozen lines below ("e.g. dpa1 attn_layer=0") is now a narrower example than what this docstring describes — consider updating that message text for consistency in a follow-up.

Test comment overstates what is actually verified.

The comment says this block will "verify excluded pairs contribute sw == 0" and "check ... call_graph sw channel", but call_graph only returns (grrg, rot_mat) — it has no sw output — and the actual assertions only check for NaN/Inf, not the claimed masking behavior. The earlier out[4] vs ref[4] comparison (lines 162-164) already indirectly validates exclusion parity for sw via the dense reference, so this block is largely redundant and its comment is misleading about intent/coverage. Either remove the stale comment or replace it with an assertion that actually validates zeroed contributions from excluded pairs (e.g., inspect the block's edge_mask/sw_e via se_atten.call_graph directly).

Docstring overstates what compact=True replaces.

The parameter doc says edge_index, edge_vec, angle_index, angle_mask are all replaced when compact=True. In practice angle_index/angle_mask are never touched by the compact branch — the function only reaches the compaction step after confirming both are None (otherwise it raises NotImplementedError). Listing them as "replaced" could mislead a future implementer extending angle-compaction support into thinking this path already handles it.

Pin device explicitly when converting atype for apply_pair_exclusion.

xp = array_api_compat.array_namespace(coord) followed by xp.asarray(atype) doesn't pin a device, unlike the analogous pair_excl wiring in nv_graph_builder.py and vesin_graph_builder.py, which both use torch.as_tensor(atype, device=<coord's device>). If atype isn't already a tensor on the same device as coord (e.g. a CPU/numpy atype paired with a CUDA coord), xp.asarray will silently produce a CPU tensor, which will then device-mismatch against graph.edge_index/edge_mask inside apply_pair_exclusion.

Test coverage gap: LAMMPS InputNlist ingestion route not exercised for pair-exclusion.

check_against_ref/all TYPED_TESTs call the 6-arg dp.compute(ener, force, virial, coord, atype, box), which routes to DeepPotPTExpt's standalone (no-nlist, build_nlist-based) compute() overload.

A bug isolated to that branch's node/edge tensor construction (e.g. the multi_rank ? nall_real : nloc node-count selection feeding applyPairExclusion) wouldn't be caught by this suite.

Consider adding a case that drives the InputNlist overload (mirroring the pattern in test_deeppot_dpa1_graph_ptexpt.cc) with pair_exclude_types set, so both C++ ingestion entry points are validated against the Python reference.

Inline comments:
In `@deepmd/pt_expt/entrypoints/main.py`:
- Around line 571-576: Update the stale inline comment in main by removing the
“no type exclusion” restriction so it matches the current graph-eligibility
behavior. Keep the note aligned with `_model_uses_graph_lower` in training.py
and the nearby ValueError message: describe graph lower as opt-in for
graph-eligible models (dpa1 with concat tebd, attention layers, and supported
exclude_types) and preserve the rest of the fail-fast/per-atom-virial
explanation.

In `@doc/model/train-se-atten.md`:
- Around line 160-164: Update the pt_expt training doc sentence describing
graph-eligible descriptors so it no longer says descriptor-level exclude_types
disqualifies the carry-all neighbor-graph path. Use the surrounding
se_atten/neighbor_graph_method explanation to state that mixed-type descriptors
with tebd_input_mode "concat" and no descriptor-level compression remain
graph-eligible, while exclude_types is not a blocking condition anymore. Keep
the dense-vs-graph parity note tied to smooth_type_embedding and attn_layer, but
make the eligibility rule consistent with the current behavior exercised by
test_exclude_types_graph_eligible_and_parity and dd.uses_graph_lower().

Outside diff comments:
In `@source/tests/pt_expt/descriptor/test_dpa1.py`:
- Around line 117-147: test_exportable is missing the graph mapping input, so it
still exercises the dense fallback instead of the graph-native exclusion path.
Update the export setup in test_exportable to pass mapping into
torch.export.export alongside dd0 and the existing inputs, using the test
fixture’s mapping source so the exclude_types parametrization covers
apply_pair_exclusion as intended.

---

Nitpick comments:
In `@deepmd/dpmodel/model/make_model.py`:
- Around line 316-322: The exception message in _call_common_graph is now too
narrow compared with the updated graph-native attention behavior described in
the nearby docstring. Update the message text in _call_common_graph so it
reflects the broader DPA1 attention-layer graph eligibility instead of only
referencing the old “e.g. dpa1 attn_layer=0” example, keeping the wording
consistent with the behavior documented in make_model.py.

In `@deepmd/dpmodel/utils/neighbor_graph/ase_builder.py`:
- Around line 154-163: The atype conversion in the ASE neighbor graph path is
not explicitly pinned to coord’s device, so apply_pair_exclusion can receive
tensors on the wrong device. Update the ase_builder flow that builds graph and
handles pair_excl to convert atype the same way as the nv_graph_builder and
vesin_graph_builder paths: derive the device from coord and create atype on that
device before flattening and passing it into apply_pair_exclusion. This keeps
the device consistent with graph.edge_index and graph.edge_mask.

In `@deepmd/dpmodel/utils/neighbor_graph/graph.py`:
- Around line 192-194: The docstring for the neighbor graph parameter overstates
the effect of compact=True by implying that angle_index and angle_mask are also
replaced. Update the documentation in graph.py to say compact mode only compacts
edge_index and edge_vec (along with edge_mask), and make it clear that
angle_index and angle_mask are not handled by this branch because the code path
only proceeds when they are None.

In `@source/api_cc/tests/test_deeppot_dpa1_pairexcl_ptexpt.cc`:
- Around line 101-159: Add coverage for the LAMMPS-style InputNlist ingestion
path in this pair-exclusion test, because the current check_against_ref and
TYPED_TESTs only exercise the 6-arg DeepPot::compute route. Introduce a test
that calls the InputNlist compute overload on DeepPotPTExpt, using
pair_exclude_types and matching the pattern used in
test_deeppot_dpa1_graph_ptexpt.cc, so the edge/node tensor caching and
applyPairExclusion/applyPairExclusionNlist branch are validated against the
Python reference.

In `@source/tests/common/dpmodel/test_dpa1_call_graph_descriptor.py`:
- Around line 166-179: The comment in test_dpa1_call_graph_descriptor is
misleading because this block does not verify excluded-pair sw masking;
call_graph only returns grrg and rot_mat, and the current assertions only check
NaN/Inf. Update the test by either removing/rephrasing the stale comment to
match the actual coverage, or add a real assertion for zeroed excluded-pair
contributions by checking the relevant sw/edge-mask path through
se_atten.call_graph or the returned graph data. The earlier out[4] vs ref[4]
comparison already covers sw parity, so keep this block focused on what it truly
validates.

In `@source/tests/common/dpmodel/test_graph_atomic_parity.py`:
- Around line 318-344: The test builds unused model scaffolding that is never
referenced, so remove the dead setup from test_apply_pair_exclusion_idempotent.
Eliminate the DescrptDPA1, InvarFitting, and DPAtomicModel construction
(including the am variable) and keep only the inputs actually needed for
extend_input_and_build_neighbor_list, from_dense_quartet, and
apply_pair_exclusion. Make sure the test still covers both the empty and
non-empty pair_exclude_types branches.

In `@source/tests/common/dpmodel/test_neighbor_graph_builder.py`:
- Around line 419-427: Remove the redundant local import inside
test_neighbor_graph_builder’s setUpClass method: the file already imports
unittest, so keep the ImportError handling but drop the inner import and use the
existing unittest.SkipTest reference when ase is missing.

…layer and type_one_side

Add @pytest.mark.parametrize for attn_layer in [0, 2] and type_one_side in
[False, True] to test_exclude_types_graph_parity. Also adds the missing parity
assertion (graph vs dense at rtol=atol=1e-12, non-binding sel). Uses
smooth_type_embedding=False to avoid the known by-design softmax denominator
divergence in the dense smooth path.
Descriptor-level exclude_types is now graph-eligible (fully supported via
apply_pair_exclusion). Remove 'no exclude_types' from four docstrings/error
messages that list graph eligibility conditions. The gate condition was removed
in the NeighborGraph implementation; only tebd_input_mode='concat' restriction
remains.

- deepmd/pt_expt/entrypoints/main.py: freeze_model docstring (~502) + ValueError message (~589)
- deepmd/dpmodel/model/make_model.py: forward docstring (~317)
- deepmd/pt_expt/train/training.py: _model_uses_graph_lower docstring (~591)
build_neighbor_graph, build_neighbor_graph_ase, build_neighbor_graph_vesin,
build_neighbor_graph_nv all gain optional keyword-only pair_excl=None and
compact=False; default path = geometric search then apply_pair_exclusion.

_call_common_graph in pt_expt make_model wires atomic_model.pair_excl to
every builder call so model-level pair_exclude_types is applied at build time
(the atomic-model seam backstop stays as idempotent identity).

Oracle tests assert set-equality of the valid-edge set between
builder(pair_excl=X) and builder() + separate apply_pair_exclusion(X),
for dense (2 id + 3 oracle cases) and ase (2 cases); vesin gets 4 new tests
(2 identity, 2 oracle, parametrized over periodic).
…_neighbor_list/strategies (A4)

Extract the inline pair-exclusion from base_atomic_model.forward_common_atomic
into apply_pair_exclusion_nlist(nlist, atype_ext, pair_excl) in nlist.py.
The seam is refactored to call the named helper (idempotent backstop remains).

Add pair_excl=None to:
- build_neighbor_list (dpmodel, nlist.py)
- DefaultNeighborList.build
- VesinNeighborList.build (pt_expt)
- NvNeighborList.build (pt; CUDA-only, API parity)
- NeighborList base class signature

12 new unit tests covering: None/empty identity, excluded pairs -> -1,
-1 slot preservation, ghost-atom types, idempotence, torch namespace smoke,
build_neighbor_list oracle equivalence, DefaultNeighborList oracle,
VesinNeighborList oracle. NvNeighborList CUDA-only (not validated locally).

…no recompile

The pair-exclusion DPA3 MPI fixture was a second full inductor compile (~2 with-
comm compiles, expensive). Model-level pair_exclude_types is applied at the C++
ingestion seam (from metadata.json) and the Python DeepEval build seam (from the
serialized model.json), NOT baked into the exported graph -- so the compiled AOTI
artifact (incl. the nested with-comm .pt2) is byte-identical to deeppot_dpa3_mpi.pt2.
Derive the pairexcl fixture by copying that archive and patching pair_exclude_types
into BOTH JSON blobs (metadata.json for C++, model.json for Python) so the two
paths agree. Verified via DeepEval: the derived model is bit-identical to a full
recompile (E=2.5311 vs baseline 2.4916) and differs from the no-exclusion baseline.
deeppot_dpa3_mpi.pt2 stays the exact no-exclusion baseline for the reference and
active-vs-baseline tests.
Apply the metadata-patch fixture derivation (a95a958) to gen_dpa1_pairexcl.py
and factor the logic into gen_common.derive_pair_exclude_pt2 (used by both
gen_dpa3.py and gen_dpa1_pairexcl.py).

gen_dpa1_pairexcl.py generated three inductor-compiled models
(_none/_graph/_nlist). _graph has the same weights and lower_kind as the _none
graph baseline and differs only in pair_exclude_types, so it is now DERIVED
from _none by patching the archive -- no third compile. _nlist is a different
lower_kind (different exported graph) so it stays a compile. 3 compiles -> 2.
Verified via DeepEval: the derived _graph is bit-identical to a full recompile
(E active vs the _none baseline). gen_dpa3.py refactored to use the shared
helper.

Retracted by author; posted prematurely and partly out of scope.

Audit of the PR's added docstrings against the package numpydoc convention
(CLAUDE.md): public functions were already compliant; fix the private/helper
idiom mismatches so they match their files' sibling methods.

- base_atomic_model._assert_{nlist,graph}_pair_excluded: add Parameters + Raises
  sections (siblings like _finalize_atomic_ret use full numpydoc).
- env_mat_stat._graph_env_mat: add Parameters + Returns (siblings iter/__call__
  use numpydoc).
- jax2tf/make_model.model_call_from_call_lower: revert docstring to its original
  one-liner (the function documents no other params); the pair_excl rationale is
  already an inline comment at the application site, so the single-param prose
  was redundant + inconsistent.
- gen_common.derive_pair_exclude_pt2: concise summary + typed Parameters, move
  the decision/verification cross-refs into a Notes section (not floating prose).

The NumPy fail-safe guards, JAX-MD fix, C++ graph/dense with-comm coverage, one-time device-table upload, and associated non-vacuity tests are all verified at HEAD. However, the ingestion inventory is still incomplete: live/compiled TF2 paths do not pass pair_excl, and DeepPotJAX invokes the exported call_lower_* functions directly for InputNlist without applying the new build-time transform. Requesting changes until these two production paths are wired and covered. The branch also currently conflicts with master, so the pair-exclusion changes need to be retained when resolving the NeighborGraph-angle, HLO-property, and IO-test conflicts.

[blocking] The new TF2 build-seam transform is not reached by the live model or trainer.

pair_excl defaults to None here, but deepmd/tf2/model/dp_model.py::call_common invokes this helper without passing model.atomic_model.pair_excl; the compiled trainer bypasses this helper and calls prepare_lower_inputs, whose signature and builders also have no pair_excl. Since the inherited dpmodel lower no longer reapplies exclusion and its fail-safe is NumPy-only, TF2 tensors silently retain excluded pairs in direct inference and both eager/compiled training. The current IO test only exercises tf2/utils/serialization.py, which does pass this argument, so it cannot catch the gap. Could we apply the canonical transform inside prepare_lower_inputs(..., pair_excl=...), thread it from both live call_common and the trainer, and add a live TF2/XLA non-vacuity test?

[blocking] The JAX C++/LAMMPS InputNlist path bypasses this pre-exclusion.

This applies pair_excl only in the exported high-level call_* wrappers, while DeepPotJAX::compute(..., InputNlist, ...) invokes the SavedModel call_lower_* functions directly (source/api_cc/src/DeepPotJAX.cc:830-868). Those wrappers currently only format the nlist before entering the serialized JAX lower, which no longer reapplies model-level exclusion, and the NumPy-only guard is skipped during tracing. Consequently normal JAX evaluation is correct while the same model can silently include excluded pairs under JAX LAMMPS inference. Could we apply the canonical transform in the exported call_lower_* wrappers or at the C++ ingestion seam, and add a non-vacuous parity test between high-level call and raw call_lower/C++ InputNlist?

The eager TF2 model (call_common in dp_model.py) built the nlist via
model_call_from_call_lower but never passed pair_excl, so live/training
inference silently included excluded type pairs (the SavedModel export
already folds it in). Thread pair_excl through, matching the base dpmodel
upper call and the SavedModel path (decision deepmodeling#18/A4).
test_exportable exported without mapping, so exclude_types only covered the
dense fallback, not the graph-native apply_pair_exclusion path. Export both
routes (with and without mapping) so the exclusion is traced on the graph
lower too (CodeRabbit review).
C++ DeepPotJAX (which consumes both jax and tf2 .savedmodel via LAMMPS
InputNlist) passed the raw nlist to the exported call_lower_* with no
exclusion, so message-passing/direct-nlist inference silently included
excluded type pairs (fail-open). The exported call_lower_* consumes a
pre-excluded nlist by design (decision deepmodeling#18/A4), so fold exclusion in at
the ingestion seam:

- export a flat get_pair_exclude_types getter from both jax2tf and tf2
  serialization (models exported before it baked exclusion into the graph,
  so a missing getter => identity is correct);
- DeepPotJAX reads it at init and builds the keep table once;
- filter the LAMMPS nlist vector (torch-free twin of applyPairExclusionNlist)
  before tensor construction.

Hoist buildPairExcludeTable to the torch-free common.h so the libtorch
apply-helpers (commonPT.h) and the TF-C-API DeepPotJAX share one builder.
…-test it

Move the DeepPotJAX inline nlist exclusion loop into a shared torch-free
helper applyPairExcludeNlistVec (common.h), the plain-vector twin of the
libtorch applyPairExclusionNlist (commonPT.h). Add test_pair_exclude_table.cc
pinning the keep-table convention and the vector filter (empty table ==
identity, both-direction exclusion, empty-slot/virtual-type handling). The
test is torch-free so it runs in every C++ build, giving the DeepPotJAX seam
logic direct coverage without a TF build.
The eager tf2 backend (deepmodeling#5598) skipped tf2 whenever pair_exclude_types or
atom_exclude_types was non-empty, which hid that dp_model.call_common dropped
pair_excl on the live path. Now that the build seam threads exclusion through
the eager upper path, un-skip tf2 so the existing end-to-end consistency test
exercises exclusion and guards against the drop (jax was already un-skipped
and covered). Applies to both TestEner (upper) and TestEnerLower (lower).
Add test_deeppot_sea_pairexcl_jax.cc: loads jax .savedmodel + tf2 .savedmodeltf
pairexcl variants (identical weights to the baseline, exclusion injected by
inject_pair_exclude.py in convert-models.sh) and drives the LAMMPS InputNlist
path. Asserts (1) excluded energy differs from baseline (exclusion active, not
dropped) and (2) the InputNlist/lower path agrees with the coord-only/upper
path (excludes the same pairs). Guards the DeepPotJAX integration that the
torch-free unit test cannot. Runtime-skips when the JAX backend isn't built,
so it compiles everywhere and runs under the TF-enabled CI build.

[blocking] TF2 compiled training still bypasses this transform. This fixes the live model.call_common path, but deepmd/tf2/train/trainer.py::_make_compiled_prepare_lower_batch calls prepare_lower_inputs() directly and then enters _call_common_lower_formatted. Since the lower no longer reapplies model-level exclusion, the actual compiled training path keeps excluded neighbors. A minimal type [0, 1] / exclusion (0, 1) case produces [[[1, -1], [0, -1]]] here, whereas the canonical transform produces all -1. Please move/thread pair_excl into prepare_lower_inputs, pass model.atomic_model.pair_excl from the trainer, and add an eager/XLA training non-vacuity regression test.

Fixed. pair_excl is now threaded into prepare_lower_inputs as the single owner, and the trainer passes model.atomic_model.pair_excl at the compiled-training prepare seam:

  • 9bdda5dprepare_lower_inputs folds exclusion into the built nlist (the redundant application in model_call_from_call_lower is removed), and trainer._make_compiled_prepare_lower_batch passes pair_excl. Includes the requested non-vacuity regression test (test_prepare_lower_inputs_folds_in_pair_exclusion): a type-[0,1] pair within cutoff yields a real neighbour without exclusion and is erased to −1 with it.
  • 4856eed — follow-up: tf2/make_model.py moved to tf2/model/make_model.py (matching the other backends' layout), and the exclusion is applied at BUILD time inside the builder dispatch (custom strategies receive pair_excl via build(), the native inline builder applies apply_pair_exclusion_nlist directly), mirroring the dpmodel/pt_expt convention instead of a post-hoc application.

Verified on a TF box (DP_TEST_TF2_ONLY=1): source/tests/tf2/test_training.py 30 passed; source/tests/consistent/model/test_ener.py 120 passed including the tf2 pair/atom-exclusion cases (which are no longer skipped as of c5b5345).

[compatibility] This unconditionally breaks existing custom NeighborList implementations, even when the model has no exclusions. The previously published build(coord, atype, box, rcut, sel, return_mode=...) signature does not accept pair_excl; because this call always passes the keyword with None, such a strategy now fails with TypeError: ... got an unexpected keyword argument 'pair_excl' on every model. Please preserve the old interface by applying apply_pair_exclusion_nlist centrally to the returned quartet (preferred), or at least avoid passing the new keyword when it is None and provide a compatibility path for non-empty exclusion.

Fixed, with a variation on the suggestion. Applying apply_pair_exclusion_nlist centrally on the returned quartet would put the transform outside the builder, inconsistent with the graph path where build_neighbor_graph(..., pair_excl=) owns exclusion — so the builder keeps ownership, and the keyword is passed only when set:

  • 8988c05 / a947793builder.build(cc, atype, bb, rcut, sel, **excl_kwargs) with excl_kwargs = {} if pair_excl is None else {"pair_excl": pair_excl}.

Behavior split:

  • no exclusion (every existing custom strategy): the old published build(coord, atype, box, rcut, sel, return_mode=...) signature is called unchanged — no TypeError;
  • non-empty exclusion + legacy builder without the keyword: loud TypeError instead of silently including excluded pairs (fail-closed, which is the failure mode we want for this feature);
  • updated builders: exclusion applied at build, same as the graph path.

Follow-up — the design settled differently from my previous reply: the conditional-kwargs indirection is dropped in a33ff79, and pair_excl=pair_excl is now passed to build() unconditionally and uniformly (dpmodel/tf2 make_model, pt_expt deep_eval, and the graph builders all use the same direct form).

Rationale: pair_excl is part of the NeighborList.build() contract — the base-class signature carries it with a None default. A custom strategy written against the pre-PR signature therefore fails loudly with TypeError rather than silently including excluded pairs; for a feature whose dangerous failure mode is silent inclusion, fail-loud is the behavior we want, and updating a custom build() to accept (or ignore via **kwargs) the new keyword is a one-line change on the implementer's side.

The live-path pair_excl fix accessed self.atomic_model directly, which raises
AttributeError on tf2 model test doubles that lack it (broke
test_tf2_dp_model_call_common_uses_tf2_helper). Guard atomic_model too,
matching the SavedModel-export pattern.
… not in build()

Passing pair_excl=... to builder.build() unconditionally broke custom
NeighborList strategies whose published build(coord, atype, box, rcut, sel,
return_mode=...) signature has no pair_excl param (TypeError on every model).
Apply apply_pair_exclusion_nlist centrally on the returned nlist instead, so
custom strategies keep the published signature (njzjz-bot review).
…aining

The compiled training path (trainer._make_compiled_prepare_lower_batch ->
prepare_lower_inputs) fed the lower directly without applying model-level
pair_exclude_types, so compiled/XLA training kept excluded neighbors. Thread
pair_excl into prepare_lower_inputs as the single owner (removing the now
redundant application in model_call_from_call_lower), and pass
model.atomic_model.pair_excl from the trainer. Add a non-vacuity regression
test that the prepared nlist erases excluded cross-type pairs (njzjz-bot review).
Rework 01784ee: applying apply_pair_exclusion_nlist centrally in make_model
put the transform outside the builder, inconsistent with the graph path where
build_neighbor_graph owns exclusion. Restore builder ownership and pass the
pair_excl keyword only when non-None: models without exclusion keep the old
published build() signature (custom strategies unaffected, njzjz-bot's
compatibility case), while a legacy builder combined with a non-empty
exclusion fails loudly with TypeError instead of silently including excluded
pairs (fail-closed).

…_excl

Move deepmd/tf2/make_model.py to deepmd/tf2/model/make_model.py, matching the
dpmodel/pt/pt_expt/pd layout (model/make_model.py); added at top level by
the eager-tf2 PR. Update all importers.

Also align the pair-exclusion convention with dpmodel/pt_expt make_model: the
nlist BUILDER owns exclusion. The custom-strategy branch passes pair_excl into
neighbor_list.build() (keyword only when set, so legacy strategies keep
working without exclusion and fail loudly with it), and the native inline
builder applies apply_pair_exclusion_nlist at build time, instead of a
post-hoc application at the end of prepare_lower_inputs.

@iProzd All three items are addressed at HEAD (4856eed).

1. TF2 live/compiled paths now pass pair_excl.

  • live/eager upper (dp_model.call_common): 6535cbd (+ guard for test doubles, 79733df);
  • compiled training (trainer._make_compiled_prepare_lower_batchprepare_lower_inputs): 9bdda5d, with a non-vacuity regression test; prepare_lower_inputs is now the single owner and the builder applies exclusion at BUILD time (4856eed, which also moves tf2/make_model.py under tf2/model/ to match the other backends);
  • regression guard: the consistency test_ener no longer skips tf2 for pair/atom exclusion (c5b5345) — this skip (added together with the eager tf2 backend) is what had been hiding the gap. Verified on a TF box (DP_TEST_TF2_ONLY=1): test_training.py 30 passed, test_ener.py 120 passed incl. the tf2 exclusion cases.

2. DeepPotJAX InputNlist path now applies the build-time transform.

  • both jax2tf and tf2 SavedModels export a flat get_pair_exclude_types getter; DeepPotJAX::init builds the keep table once and the LAMMPS nlist is filtered before call_lower_* (33318f4). Models exported before the getter baked exclusion into the graph, so a missing getter ⇒ identity is correct for them (no fail-open for old artifacts).
  • the filter is a torch-free twin of applyPairExclusionNlist (applyPairExcludeNlistVec in common.h, shared table builder hoisted there), unit-tested in every C++ build (4846ec7);
  • end-to-end gtest on the InputNlist route for both SavedModel flavours (excluded ≠ baseline, and InputNlist path == coord-only path), with fixtures derived from deeppot_sea at identical weights (4acf4de); it runtime-skips when the JAX backend isn't built, so the assertions run under the TF-enabled CI build.

3. Conflicts with master are resolved (15858b6): the pair-exclusion changes are retained; the NeighborGraph-angle __all__, hlo.py property-model attributes, and the io-test classes (TestDeepPotPairExclude + TestDeepProperty as two separate classes) are merged from both sides.

Also addressed from njzjz-bot's latest round (see inline replies): the builder.build() compatibility issue is resolved by passing pair_excl only when set, so custom NeighborList strategies keep the published signature, while a legacy builder combined with a non-empty exclusion fails loudly instead of silently including pairs.

…ilder

_nlist_builder is always the in-repo VesinNeighborList (never user-injected),
so the direct keyword is correct here; the conditional-kwargs idiom in
dpmodel/tf2 make_model exists only for third-party NeighborList strategies
injected via the public neighbor_list= parameter.
…e contract

Drop the conditional **excl_kwargs indirection in dpmodel/tf2 make_model and
pass pair_excl=pair_excl uniformly (matching pt_expt deep_eval and the graph
builders). pair_excl is part of the NeighborList.build() contract (base-class
signature); a custom strategy predating it fails loudly with TypeError instead
of silently including excluded pairs.
