The thesis presents AI frameworks that accelerate crystalline materials discovery by tackling both crystal property prediction and crystal structure generation. It introduces CrysXPP, CrysGNN, and CrysMMNet for efficient, data‑sparse property prediction using graph autoencoding, self‑supervised pretraining, and multimodal learning. For generation, TGDMat is a text‑guided diffusion model that jointly learns lattice parameters, atomic types, and coordinates, enabling valid, stable, and conditionally generated periodic materials.

arXiv:2606. 07712v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Progress in AI-driven crystal materials science has so far been carried by narrow architectures purpose-built for individual tasks -- graph neural networks for property prediction, diffusion and flow-matching models for crystal generation -- each excelling within its niche yet unable to act as a shared backbone across the full spectrum of materials problems.

The paper introduces a semi‑supervised framework that learns to predict nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) chemical shifts from millions of literature‑extracted spectra without explicit atom‑level assignments. By treating the prediction as a permutation‑invariant set supervision problem, the authors show that optimal bipartite matching can be reduced to a sorting‑based loss, enabling stable large‑scale training. The resulting models outperform state‑of‑the‑art methods, generalize better to diverse molecules, and for the first time capture systematic solvent effects across common NMR solvents.

Packora is a flow-based generative model designed for molecular crystal structure prediction (CSP). It jointly predicts atomic coordinates and lattice parameters from molecular graphs, supporting multi-component and organometallic crystals and allowing conditioning on conformers, stereochemistry, and space-group data. In evaluations inspired by the CCDC CSP blind test, Packora outperforms baselines on generation and ranking benchmarks, achieving superior matched-budget coverage, higher experimental-form recovery, lower ranks, and faster convergence.
