MS Informatics

Automated machine learning tools for materials science applications

Materials Science Informatics

Overview

MS Informatics provides molecular featurization and machine learning (ML) tools for organic, organometallic, polymer, chemical mixture (i.e., formulation), and inorganic solid materials to help design new materials through data driven approaches. By combining physics-based featurization, customized pretrained ML models, and automated workflows to train and evaluate ML models, users can take advantage of the computationally efficient data-driven approaches to screen and down select promising materials.

Key Capabilities

Build accurate material-property relationships using computationally efficient machine learning models for organic molecules, polymers, formulations, and more
Enhance model predicability with advanced, physics-informed descriptors for organic, inorganic, and polymer materials using cheminformatics, semi-empirical approaches, quantum mechanics (QM), and molecular dynamics (MD)
Use pre-trained ML models to predict properties such as polymer glass transition temperature, viscosity, density, and a variety of optoelectronic properties for molecules
Interact through an intuitive GUI to perform single-point and geometry optimization using Schrödinger’s universal machine learning force field (MPNICE) for both periodic and gas-phase systems
