In the whole package “cost”, you can find : - casdi: MRCI program (MR-SDCI or DDCI), - dolo: localization of orbitals, - exsci also named casdiloc: selected MRCI (quasi linear MRCI), - noscf: to optimize orbitals (using MR-SCI and density matrices of the states, different spin multiplicity or spatial symmetry allowed), - faiano: to transform a basis set in an ANO form (sometimes useful for the localization) - etc…
