ML

Overview

Currently, there are two types of data that are machine-learned (ML) in JARVIS-ML: discrete and image-based.

JARVIS-ML introduced Classical Force-field Inspired Descriptors (CFID) as a universal framework to represent a material’s chemistry-structure-charge related data. These descriptors along with powerful AI/ML algortihms such as neural networks, Gaussain processes and decision trees etc. provide a powerful tool for materials informatics. With the help of CFID and JARVIS-DFT data, several high-accuracy classifications and regression ML models were developed, with applications to fast materials-screening and energy-landscape mapping. Some of the trained property models include formation energies, exfoliation energies, bandgaps, magnetic moments, refractive index, dielectric, thermoelectric, and maximum piezoelectric and infrared modes. Also, several ML interpretability analysis revealed physical-insights beyond intuitive understandings in materials-science. These models, the workflow, dataset etc. are disseminated to enhance the transparency of the work. Recently, JARVIS-ML expanded to include STM-image ML models, as they are reported to directly accelerate experiments. Graph convolution neural network models are being developed for the image and crystal-structures. For image based convolution neural network based classification is carried out.

Methodology

  • Crystal structure specific information are converted into the Classical Force-field Inspred Descriptors (CFID).
  • For each crystal (3D, 2D, 1D, 0D, molecule, proteins and surface) 1557 CFID descriptors are obtaines.
  • The CFID consists of 1557 descriptors for each material: 438 average chemical, 4 simulation-box-size, 378 radial charge-distribution, 100 radial distribution, 179 angle-distribution up to first neighbor, and another 179 for the second neighbor, 179 dihedral angle up to fist neighbor and 100 nearest neighbor descriptors.
  • We have converted at least 1 million atomic structures to CFID descriptors and that dataset will be made available soon. After generating the features, we trained several property models.
  • JARVIS-ML model accuracy is evaluated on the test-set (usually 10 %) representing newly computed and previously unseen DFT data for both regression and classifications models. Accuracy of regression and classification models are reported in terms of mean absolute error (MAE) and Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) Area Under Curve (AUC) metric respectively.
