Can this software be used in conjunction with plumed for enhanced sampling? Can it be combined with ase to do enhanced sampling through ase? If possible, what should be done?

It should be possible if you can swap the ase calculator with the torchsim model to compute energy and forces.

Although, I am not yet sure how batching would work in this setup. If I get more request for plumed integration in torchsim then I can try implementing it.

OK，thanks.
