We are working with more partners to bring these AI tools into real-world impact. We also look forward to hearing feedback from you when you try out our tools.

MatterGen is the first demonstration on how generative AI begins to impact how we design novel materials. It will have profound influence on broad domains, including energy storage, carbon capture, and medical imaging.

This introduces an improved approach to evaluate generative model for materials. We have updated all evaluation in the paper and make the whole evaluation pipeline available in our GitHub repo.

Compositional disorder has raised extensive discussion in the community past year. We introduce a new structure matching algorithm that accounts for disorder, and use it redefine novelty and stability.

Compared to our announcement 1 year ago (see copied post), we successfully synthesized a novel material generated by MatterGen and show the experimentally measured property is within 20% of the target -- quite close from an experimental point of view.
