• Abstract summary: We introduce an unsupervised learning algorithm to automatically detect structures within a crystal under plastic deformation. We show that by using local parameters based on bond-angle distributions, we are able to detect more structures and with a higher degree of precision than traditional hand-made criteria.

• Abstract: Detecting structures at the particle scale within plastically deformed crystalline materials allows a better understanding of the occurring phenomena. While previous approaches mostly relied on applying hand-chosen criteria on different local parameters, these approaches could only detect already known structures.We introduce an unsupervised learning algorithm to automatically detect structures within a crystal under plastic deformation. This approach is based on a study developed for structural detection on colloidal materials. This algorithm has the advantage of being computationally fast and easy to implement. We show that by using local parameters based on bond-angle distributions, we are able to detect more structures and with a higher degree of precision than traditional hand-made criteria.

  We propose two generative approaches to the problem of crystal structure design. One is conditional structure modification, using the energy difference between the most energetically favorable structure and all its less stable polymorphs. The other is conditional structure generation, using the energy difference between the most energetically favorable structure and all its less stable polymorphs.

  We propose Generative Hierarchical Materials Search (GenMS) for controllable generation of crystal structures. GenMS consists of (1) a language model that takes high-level natural language as input and generates intermediate textual information about a crystal. GenMS additionally uses a graph neural network to predict properties (e.g., formation energy) from the generated crystal structures.

  In computational chemistry, crystal structure prediction is an optimization problem. One approach to tackle this problem involves building simulators based on density functional theory (DFT) followed by running search in simulation. We show that our approach, dubbed LCOMs (latent conservative objective models), performs comparably to the best current approaches in terms of success rate of structure prediction.

• Crystal structure prediction of materials with high symmetry using differential evolution [0.5249805590164902]
  We propose a contact map-based crystal structure prediction method, which uses genetic algorithms to maximize the match between the contact map of predicted structure and the contact map of the real crystal structure. When predicting the crystal structure with high symmetry, we find that the global optimization algorithm has difficulty to find an effective combination of WPs that satisfies the chemical formula. Our proposed algorithm CMCrystalHS can effectively solve the problem of inconsistent contact map dimensions and predict the crystal structures with high symmetry.
