Can New Materials Discovery Get a Boost from Artificial Intelligence?
Adobe Stock An algorithm developed by NIST drastically reduces the time it takes for scientists to identify materials well-suited to applications. Scientists across the world already have been using artificial intelligence (AI) to help them discover new materials by predicting the way they will act before they are synthesized and identifying helpful materials to solve particular problems, among other techniques. Now a multi-institutional team from the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has developed its system for doing this by inventing an algorit...
