Excited to finally announce the publication of MatterGen on Nature. MatterGen represents a new paradigm of materials design with generative AI. We are releasing the code of MatterGen under MIT license. Look forward to seeing how the community will use the tool and build on top of it.
Microsoft researchers introduce MatterGen, a model that can discover new materials tailored to specific needs—like efficient solar cells or CO2 recycling—advancing progress beyond trial-and-error experiments. www.microsoft.com/en-us/resear...
