It is assumed that the non-variational mixed estimator is used for the
FN-DMC energy. How adequate is the discussion on the error using a
lower energy in this case? Please elaborate this in detail.
\alert{\textbf{Response:}
The non-variational mixed estimator is not used for the FN-DMC energy
in this work.
We have used the variant of Assaraf, Caffarel and
Khelif\cite{Assaraf_2000} (ref 112 in the paper) of the Stochastic
Reconfiguration (SR) algorithm developped by Hetherington and
Sorella.\cite{Sorella_Hetherington_1984,1998,Sorella_2000}
It is smart algorithm mixing pure diffusion Monte Carlo (PDMC) and DMC
and taking the best of those 2 methods~: the DMC algorithm is stable
at the cost of the introduction of a finite population bias, and the
PDMC algorithm is stabilized by introducing a finite projecting time.
The SR algorithm has 2 limits: with a single walker it falls back to
PDMC, and with an infinite population the DMC is recovered. The mixing
of the 2 methods does not introduce the population control bias of
DMC, and requires a much shorter projecting time than PDMC. In
practice, it is quite easy to reach a regime where the number of
walkers and the projecting time are such that the simulation is
stable, the bias due to the finite projecting time is negligible and
the fluctuations introduced by the projection are small.

\alert{
To clarify this point, we have added a sentence to the paper:
\quote{
With such parameters, both the time-step error and the bias due to the
finite projecting time are smaller than the error bars.

\textbf{\large Reviewer \#2}
The only criticism I have is about the examples reported. Despite the
importance of the G1 test set, for which the atomization energies have
been computed, I would like to see an example where the ground state
has a true multi-reference character. Indeed, as the authors pointed out,
the G1 set is only weakly correlated, and RS-DFT-CIPSI does not show its
best performances, and does not pay off. Indeed, in the G1 set, basis-set
effects on the nodal surface quality seem to be more important than the
effect of dealing with a multi-reference wave function.
\alert{\textbf{Response:}
We totally agree with the reviewer, CIPSI trial wave functions can
handle very well multi-configurational effects. In cases such as
the G1 set, although the total FN-DMC energies are extremely low the
energy differences are difficult to control, especially for large
systems. This was a limit of the use of CIPSI wave functions for
QMC. Here, we have shown that this gap can be filled with the proposed
method. We believe that using RS-DFT-CIPSI in the context of strongly
correlated systems is indeed an interesting topic, but it goes a bit
beyond the scope of the present manuscript. Of course, we intend to
study RS-DFT-CIPSI trial wave functions on strongly correlated systems
in a near future.
