AI accelerates materials science from the lab to market

"Materials Informatics is an R&D paradigm shift; enabling discoveries and cutting the time to market" Nearly every sector is proposing the use of artificial intelligence. Materials science R&D is relatively late to this trend, and there are many industry-specific hurdles, but the opportunities are beginning to be realised and the potential impact is significant. Materials informatics is the use of data-centric approaches for materials science discovery and development. This is principally enabled by improved data infrastructures and machine learning solutions; this is set to be a paradigm shift in the way researchers conduct R&D projects and a discussion on why the adoption is now can be seen in a previous article. At this key moment of initial commercial adoption, ID Tech Ex has released the most comprehensive technical market report on the topic, 'Materials Informatics 2020-2030'.
