ProtoMI is a literature‑driven framework that learns structural priors from 126 reported boron‑containing electrolyte additives and applies them to screen 179,977 unlabeled candidates. Using graph contrastive learning, it identifies seven interpretable prototypes and adapts them through semi‑supervised contrastive learning, achieving enrichment factors of 9.2–45.6 while evaluating less than 2% of the candidate space. The method led to the discovery of four commercially accessible additives, including TNDB, which improves high‑temperature LiFePO4||graphite cycling by 34.93% and forms protective interphases that suppress solvent decomposition and Fe deposition.

The paper presents a hierarchical deep‑learning framework that integrates compositional, structural, and transport models to screen solid‑state electrolytes. Four modules—L‑G‑DCNN, DenseGNN, MatterSim, and DeePMD—coordinate to evaluate thermodynamics, multi‑property performance, and kinetic transport, outperforming existing methods. Applied to over 30 million candidates, the workflow identifies 97 high‑performance materials, mainly halides, and links Li⁺ jump‑network connectivity to ionic conductivity while highlighting limits for oxide electrolytes.

The paper introduces MEHnet-MG, an equivariant neural network that predicts a one‑electron Hamiltonian from a single inexpensive B3LYP/def2‑SVP calculation and uses it to compute a wide range of molecular properties—energy, optical gap, dipole, quadrupole, polarizability, Mulliken charges, and Mayer bond orders—at coupled‑cluster accuracy for nine main‑group elements, including phosphorus, sulfur, and chlorine. Trained on a new CCSD(T) dataset, the model reduces property errors by factors ranging from 3.8 to 230 compared to various DFT methods while adding only ~25 ms per molecule. Importantly, by deriving properties from a predicted Hamiltonian rather than pooling atomic features, the architecture naturally incorporates correct size‑scaling, enabling accurate extrapolation to large π‑conjugated systems (up to 58 atoms) where traditional pooling‑based models fail.

The paper introduces Gaussian Splatting for Density Functional Theory (GS‑DFT), a method that represents molecular orbitals as a cloud of Gaussians optimized via gradient descent. GS‑DFT replaces fixed atom‑centered basis sets with an adaptive, differentiable orthogonalization and efficient two‑electron integral evaluation, achieving accuracy comparable to large conventional bases with far fewer parameters. The solver scales quadratically with cloud size, enabling simulations of up to 2,742 atoms on a single four‑GPU node at triple‑zeta precision.
