Correction to: npj Computational Materials https://doi.org/10.1038/s41524-025-01542-4, published online 02 March 2025

In this article, reference 43 was incorrectly given as ‘Erhard, L. C., Rohrer, V., Albe, K., and Deringer, V. L.,Modelling atomic and nanoscale structure in the silicon-oxygen system through active machine learning, https://arxiv.org/abs/2309.03587 (2023)’ and should have read ‘Erhard, L.C., Rohrer, J., Albe, K. et al. Modelling atomic and nanoscale structure in the silicon–oxygen system through active machine learning. Nat Commun 15, 1927 (2024). https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-024-45840-9’.

The original article has been corrected.
