Equation Of State (EOS) here calculate the energies of the most stable structures as a function of volume. Users can refer to Figure 4 of the dpgen paper for more information of EOS.

An example of the input file for EOS by VASP:

{
	"structures":	"confs/mp-*",
	"interaction": {
		"type":		"vasp",
		"incar":	"vasp_input/INCAR",
                "potcar_prefix":"vasp_input",
		"potcars":	{"Al": "POTCAR.al", "Mg": "POTCAR.mg"}
	},
	"properties": [
		{
                        "type":         "eos",
			"vol_start":	10,
			"vol_end":	30,
			"vol_step":	0.5
		}
        ]
}
