• Abstract summary: Existing methods for crystal property prediction either have constraints that are too restrictive or only incorporate symmetries between unit cells. We develop a model which incorporates the symmetries of the unit cell of a crystal in its architecture and explicitly models the porous structure. Our results confirm that our method performs better than existing methods for crystal property prediction and that the inclusion of symmetry results in a more efficient model.

• Abstract: Efficiently predicting properties of porous crystalline materials has great potential to accelerate the high throughput screening process for developing new materials, as simulations carried out using first principles model are often computationally expensive. To effectively make use of Deep Learning methods to model these materials, we need to utilize the symmetries present in the crystals, which are defined by their space group. Existing methods for crystal property prediction either have symmetry constraints that are too restrictive or only incorporate symmetries between unit cells. In addition, these models do not explicitly model the porous structure of the crystal. In this paper, we develop a model which incorporates the symmetries of the unit cell of a crystal in its architecture and explicitly models the porous structure. We evaluate our model by predicting the heat of adsorption of CO$_2$ for different configurations of the mordenite zeolite. Our results confirm that our method performs better than existing methods for crystal property prediction and that the inclusion of pores results in a more efficient model.

  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.
