Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning for Ceramics and Glasses

MRS Communications in partnership with Nature Communications delivered a two-day virtual workshop on May 21 and 22, 2024, where the theme of Artificial Intelligence in Materials included new AI methods and approaches, computational models, science and engineering domains, materials development, and applications with new ecosystems including advanced manufacturing. Discussions covered:

• Artificial Intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) in the convergence of fundamentals and applications
• Science domains with increasing hyphenation in experimental methods
• Algorithms and digital twins at the hierarchy of materials order and phenomena
• Generative neural networks for autonomous optimization
• ML of non-optimized data beyond regression analysis and Bayesian methods
• Experimental tools based on automation and in-operando measurements
• Robotics and mechatronics in laboratories of the future
• Relevance of AI in nanomaterials and quantum computing
• Advanced manufacturing and the benefits of AI/ML
  

Each day brought together experts in the field from academia and industry for keynote presentations and a panel discussion.
