Machine Learning for Better Materials - Advanced Science News
Machine learning grabbed the headlines a few years ago when AlphaGo was able to defeat the reigning "Go" world champion. Since then developments have been gathering pace, with the technology finding a wide array of uses, from chemistry to facial recognition, and entertainment. In Holland, a team of researchers have demonstrated the utility of machine learning in metamaterial design. Metamaterials' properties come not as a result of the material's chemistry, but rather, their shape and structure. The team ran simulations of randomly generated designs whose geometry was defined according to seven separate variables.
