Optimization of replica exchange temperature ladder under the well-tempered ensemble

Selection of temperature sequence and bias factor is a critical step for the preparation of Parallel Tempering simulations in a Well-Tempered Ensemble (PT-WTE). We provide a scheme in this study to generate the temperature sequence and the corresponding bias factor optimally. The number of replicas...
