In Protein structure prediction there have been massive improvements recently with the help of machine learning. In RNA structure prediction however the situation is less ideal due too much sparser experimental data. Here we attempt to solve a modified version of the problem by determining a coarse-grained RNA force field for Molecular Dynamics simulations. The data sparsity can here be alleviated by atomistic RNA simulations using proven and established force fields. In a first step we show the viability of this approach with a limited scenario of only small RNA molecules. We also explore different bead numbers for the coarse graining to determine the best approximation.
