Abstract

Data‐driven epoch, the development of machine learning (ML) in materials and device design is an irreversible trend. Its ability and efficiency to handle nonlinear and game‐playing problems is unmatched by traditional simulation computing software and trial‐error experiments. Perovskite solar cells are complex physicochemical devices (systems) that consist of perovskite materials, transport layer materials, and electrodes. Predicting the physicochemical properties and screening the component materials related to perovskite solar cells is the strong point of ML. However, the applications of ML in perovskite solar cells and component materials has only begun to boom in the last two years, so it is necessary to provide a review of the involved ML technologies, the application status, the facing urgent challenges and the development blueprint.

Self-check

Percentages, sums and reported differences re-computed from the paper’s own numbers.

Each contradiction between two passages listed here was confirmed by an independent check.

  • Debye-temperature MSE is smaller than its MAE permits

    Major

    The reported Debye-temperature MAE is 11.737 K, so its square is 137.757169 K2. MSE cannot be less than MAE squared for the same predictions, but the reported MSE is only 16.741.

    Reported 16.741 · recomputed 137.757169

  • F1-score description conflicts with the displayed formula

    Minor

    The prose says F1 is the harmonic mean of precision and accuracy. The displayed expression uses true positives, false positives and false negatives, which defines the harmonic mean of precision and recall instead.

  • Two formulas are given for the double-perovskite structure

    Minor

    One passage calls A 2 BB'X 3 a double perovskite, while the later structural definition gives A 2 BB'X 6 for that arrangement of A and B sites.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Claims read by deepseek-v4.1-flash under definition version 3 (extract-v3) on 2026-10-11.

Classified by jev-1.13-20260917 (gold-guideline-v0.2) on 2026-10-11.

Cited sources are checked by gpt-6-sol.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
