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 article introduces PolyBench26, an open benchmark dataset for polymer property prediction that contains nearly 250,000 datapoints covering eight physical properties from experimental, DFT, and MD sources. It supports four evaluation tasks—property prediction, dataset-size scaling, repeat‑unit complexity, and transfer learning—across homopolymers and various copolymer architectures. The study compares language, graph, and descriptor models, finding graph-based approaches achieve the lowest errors and maintain robustness across training sizes and repeat‑unit complexity.

HiPoly is a polymer-native AI framework that uses a three-level hierarchical graph architecture built on the G2RINS representation to process complete polymer descriptions. It encodes stochastic inter-monomer connectivity, composition, and molecular weight directly within its architecture, enabling end-to-end workflows from experimental data to property prediction, generative design, and physics-based validation. The framework achieves state-of-the-art accuracy for thermophysical properties of multi-component polymer systems and demonstrates generative design by discovering sustainable, PFAS-free alternatives with target surface-energy properties.
