In the spirit of open data, Citrine Informatics, a materials data analytics platform, is providing Challenge solvers with access to its database containing almost 3 million materials-property pairs aggregated from a variety of sources. “It became clear that there aren’t that many publicly available data sources from which teams could draw,” says Greg Mulholland, one of […]
Within the materials community, there are several data repository efforts including the NIST Materials Data Repository (https://materialsdata.nist.gov), Automatic Flow for Materials Discovery (AFLOW) through the AFLOW Consortium (http://aflowlib.org), Citrine Informatics (http://www.citrine.io), Materials Project (https://www.materialsproject.org/), National Center for Supercomputing Applications (NCSA) Materials Data Facility as part of its National Data Facility (http://www.nationaldataservice.org/projects/mdf.html), and the University of Michigan Materials […]
One approach for the creation of materials databases is described in detail in Reference 43. Examples of such databases include Citrine Informatics (44) for physical properties of nearly 30,000 chemical compounds, the Clean Energy Project database (45) for electronic properties of organic compounds used in plastic solar cells, The Materials Project (46) at MIT/LBNL and the Automatic-FLOW […]
