Title: Key factors for improving material proposal capabilities: How to cross the devil's river in the age of AI
Abstract:
The Devil's River, the Valley of Death, and Darwin's Sea are known as three difficult points to bring technology to market. In particular, the Devil's River, which is considered the phase that connects research to development, is the area of greatest uncertainty in terms of how to combine elemental technologies and how to connect them to ambiguous needs, and it is an important challenge for material manufacturers to create a strong system that can overcome this. In this seminar, we will break down the Devil's River into three information processing steps, discuss the direction of measures for each step and the scope for utilizing DX and AI, and introduce how computational chemistry and materials informatics (MI), which have been attracting attention in recent years, can contribute to this. Finally, we will introduce Matlantis, a computational chemistry material design tool that uses AI.
