• Abstract: Automatic material discovery with desired properties is a fundamental challenge for material sciences. Considerable attention has recently been devoted to generating stable crystal structures. While existing work has shown impressive success on supervised tasks such as property prediction, the progress on unsupervised tasks such as material generation is still hampered by the limited extent to which the equivalent geometric representations of the same crystal are considered. To address this challenge, we propose EMPNN a periodic equivariant message-passing neural network that learns crystal lattice deformation in an unsupervised fashion. Our model equivalently acts on lattice according to the deformation action that must be performed, making it suitable for crystal generation, relaxation and optimisation. We present experimental evaluations that demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach.

  New solid-state materials require rapidly exploring the vast space of crystal structures and locating stable regions. Existing methods struggle to explore large material spaces and generate diverse samples with desired properties and requirements. We propose a novel generative model employing a hierarchical exploration strategy to efficiently exploit the symmetry of the materials space to generate crystal structures given desired properties.

  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.
