Case of predicting inorganic synthesis conditions from small data: applying machine learning to control the diameter of copper nanoparticles

A case study published in Chemistry of Materials showed that inorganic synthesis prediction is possible even with a small dataset. An approach was presented for predicting the synthesis conditions and results of copper nanoparticles that control the hydrodynamic diameter using machine learning, suggesting that ML can be effective for synthesis design even with limited experimental data. However, caution is needed when extrapolating from small data.

Optical edge-enhanced DNN on a spin-multiplexed metasurface improves single-chip classification accuracy from 64.2% to 80.7%

A diffractive neural network combined with a spin-multiplexed nonlocal metasurface carried out optical edge detection and single-chip image classification in the field of physics applications. MNIST classification accuracy increased from 64.2% to 80.7%, and the polarization conversion efficiency was reported at about 55%. However, because these results are from a specific optical setup and dataset, generalization performance requires separate verification.

Interpreting glass-forming rules across more than 78,000 compositions by common and system-specific analysis with SHAP-integrated XGBoost

A study published in npj Computational Materials analyzed glass-forming behavior by combining XGBoost classification with SHAP interpretation across 78,889 composition data points spanning conjugated, ionic, and metallic networks. The overall classification accuracy was 89.6%, and SHAP suggested a common frustration mechanism across different series and nonlinear critical behavior of compositional heterogeneity.

Design Rules for Electrolyte Additives in Sodium Metal Batteries Derived by Interpretable Machine Learning

A JACS paper reported deriving design rules for electrolyte compositions and additives for sodium metal batteries using an interpretable machine-learning knowledge-discovery framework. The combination of lower oxygen content and larger nonpolar surface area favored anion-dominated solvation and NaF-rich SEI formation, and on this basis the study reported 800 cycles with an average CE of 99.9% and energy density exceeding 230 Wh kg⁻¹ in Ah-scale pouch cells.

Polymer property prediction combining geometry-based splitting and 3D structure shows better performance than p-SMILES alone

Multimodal learning that divides polymer structures into multiscale fragments based on geometry and then uses p-SMILES together with 3D structure showed improvements over p-SMILES alone in several property prediction tasks. The abstract states that the paper is scheduled for publication in ACS Omega, but it is currently at the arXiv submission stage.

SteelAgent, which predicted steel properties, reported uncertainty, and performed inverse design with an LLM, also confirmed the limits of holdout generalization

SteelAgent is a physics-informed model with LLM orchestration attached that performed steel property prediction, uncertainty reporting, and inverse design. It showed strong performance under random splits, but performance and 90% confidence interval coverage dropped sharply under series and group holdout, revealing vulnerability to distribution shift in materials data.
