Crystal structure prediction (CSP) has emerged as one of the most important approaches for discovering new materials. CSP algorithms based on evolutionary and particle swarm optimization have discovered a great number However, these ab initio calculation free energy are inefficient. Moreover, they severe limitations in terms scalability. We recently proposed promising crystal method atomic contact maps, using global to search Wyckoff positions by maximizing match between map predicted true structure. our previous two major limitations: (1) loss capability due getting trapped local optima; (2) it only uses connection atoms unit cell predict structure, ignoring chemical environment outside cell, which may lead unreasonable coordination environments. Herein we propose novel multi-objective genetic map-based optimizing three objectives, including accuracy, individual age, match. Furthermore, assign age values all individuals GA try minimize aiming avoid premature convergence problem. Our experimental results show that compared CMCrystal algorithm, algorithm (CMCrystalMOO) can reconstruct with higher quality alleviate problem convergence.

Abstract Powder X‐ray diffraction (PXRD) is a prevalent technique in materials characterization. While the analysis of PXRD often requires extensive human manual intervention, and most automated method only achieved at coarse‐grained level. The more difficult important task fine‐grained crystal structure prediction from remains unaddressed. This study introduces XtalNet, first equivariant deep generative model for end‐to‐end PXRD. Unlike previous methods that rely solely on composition, XtalNet leverages as an additional condition, eliminating ambiguity enabling generation complex organic structures with up to 400 atoms unit cell. comprises two modules: Contrastive PXRD‐Crystal Pretraining (CPCP) module aligns space space, Conditional Crystal Structure Generation (CCSG) generates candidate conditioned patterns. Evaluation MOF datasets (hMOF‐100 hMOF‐400) demonstrates XtalNet's effectiveness. achieves top‐10 Match Rate 90.2% 79% hMOF‐100 hMOF‐400 conditional task, respectively. enables direct experimental measurements, need intervention external databases. opens new possibilities determination accelerated discovery novel materials.

Abstract Density functional theory (DFT) has been widely applied in modern materials discovery and many databases, including the open quantum database (OQMD), contain large collections of calculated DFT properties experimentally known crystal structures hypothetical predicted compounds. Since beginning OQMD late 2010, over one million compounds have now stored database, which is constantly used by worldwide researchers advancing studies. The growth depends on project-based high-throughput calculations, structure-based projects, property-based most recently, machine-learning-based projects.

Fast and accurate crystal structure prediction (CSP) algorithms web servers are highly desirable for the exploration discovery of new materials out infinite chemical design space. However, currently, computationally expensive first-principles calculation-based CSP applicable to relatively small systems reach most researchers. Several teams have used an element substitution approach generating or predicting structures, but usually in ad hoc way.

Crystal structure prediction (CSP) is the problem of determining most stable crystalline arrangements materials given their chemical compositions. In general, CSP methodologies include two algorithmic steps, namely a method for assessing material stability any design, and search algorithm exploring design space. For inorganic crystals, in particular, critical aspect to develop an effective algorithm. This paper summarizes previous research discusses recent progress methods developed CSP. Empirical methods, guided-sampling algorithms, more data-driven approaches are discussed. Additionally, we describe mathematical optimization-based paradigm that has been recently introduced as alternative approach. A semiconductor nanowire approach then presented illustrate this paradigm.
