Machine learning: Accelerating materials development for energy storage and conversion
Open accessAbstract
With the development of modern society, the requirement for energy has become increasingly important on a global scale. Therefore, the exploration of novel materials for renewable energy technologies is urgently needed. Traditional methods are difficult to meet the requirements for materials science due to long experimental period and high cost. Nowadays, machine learning (ML) is rising as a new research paradigm to revolutionize materials discovery. In this review, we briefly introduce the basic procedure of ML and common algorithms in materials science, and particularly focus on latest progress in applying ML to property prediction and materials development for energy‐related fields, including catalysis, batteries, solar cells, and gas capture. Moreover, contributions of ML to experiments are involved as well. We highly expect that this review could lead the way forward in the future development of ML in materials science. image

“The key is learning to learn, also called meta learning, which has been used in image recognition.(208,209) Several approaches(210,211) were developed for meta learning and it is worth introducing to materials science for limited datasets.”

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.
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.
