We report a universal density-based basis set incompleteness correction that can be applied to any wave function theory method.
We report a universal density-based basis set incompleteness correction that can be applied to any wave function method.
The present correction relies on short-range correlation functionals (with multi-determinant reference) from range-separated density-functional theory (RS-DFT) to estimate the basis set incompleteness error.
Contrary to conventional RS-DFT schemes which require an \textit{ad hoc} range-separated \textit{parameter} $\mu$, the key ingredient here is a basis-dependent, range-separated \textit{function} $\mu(\bf{r})$ which is dynamically determined to catch the missing short-range correlation due to the lack of electron-electron cusp in standard wave function methods.
As illustrative examples, we show how this density-based correction allows to obtain near-complete basis set CCSD(T) atomization energies for the G2 set of molecules with compact Gaussian basis sets.
For example, CCSD(T)+LDA/cc-pVTZ and CCSD(T)+PBE/cc-pVTZ return mean absolute deviations of \titou{X.XX} and \titou{X.XX} kcal/mol, respectively, compared to CBS atomization energies.

We begin our investigation of the performance of the basis set correction by computing the atomization energies of \ce{C2}, \ce{N2}, \ce{O2} and \ce{F2} obtained with Dunning's cc-pVXZ basis sets (X $=$ D, T, Q and 5).
In the case of \ce{C2} and \ce{N2}, we also perform calculations with the cc-pCVXZ family.
\ce{N2}, \ce{O2} and \ce{F2} are weakly correlated systems and belong to the G2 test set, whereas \ce{C2} already contains a non-negligible amount of strong correlation. \cite{BooCleThoAla-JCP-11}
In a second time, we compute the entire atomization energies of the G2 test set \cite{CurRagTruPop-JCP-91} composed by 55 molecules with the cc-pVXZ family.

In a second time, we compute the entire atomization energies of the G2 set \cite{CurRagTruPop-JCP-91} composed by 55 molecules with the cc-pVXZ family.
This molecular set has been exhausively studied in the last 20 years (see, for example, Refs.~\onlinecite{FelPetDix-JCP-08,Gro-JCP-09,FelPet-JCP-09,NemTowNee-JCP-10,FelPetHil-JCP-11,PetTouUmr-JCP-12,FelPet-JCP-13,KesSylKohTewMar-JCP-18}).
%The reference values for the atomization energies are extracted from Ref.~\onlinecite{HauKlo-JCP-12} and corresponds to frozen-core non-relativistic atomization energies obtained at the CCSD(T)(F12)/cc-pVQZ-F12 level of theory corrected for higher-excitation contributions ($E_\text{CCSDT(Q)/cc-pV(D+d)Z} - E_\text{CCSD(T)/cc-pV(D+d)Z})$.
As a method $\modX$ we employ either CCSD(T) or exFCI.
