In this work, we explore the local-scaling self-interaction correction (LSIC) method using a ratio of orbital and total density as a simple scaling factor. Similarly to the original LSIC, this approach gives a better performance than PZSIC. The simple scaling factor also provides a good description of binding energies of weakly bonded water clusters.
