Robust and Efficient AI Frameworks for Scalable Material Design and Property Prediction

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.

ElemeNet: Multiscale Molecular Machine Learning with Uncertainty Quantification Across the Periodic Table

arXiv:2606. 30961v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Advances in deep learning architectures and representations have enabled ML-driven chemical property prediction, but state-of-the-art (SOTA) models have remained largely confined to independent codebases and lack support for diverse chemical species.

WOMBAT: Whitebox Oracle for Molecular Benchmarking and Attribution Testing

WOMBAT is a benchmark comprising 14 whitebox graph neural networks (GNNs) whose message‑passing weights are manually set to detect specific SMARTS motifs. Each model’s decision rule is explicitly known, providing a ground truth for attribution that allows researchers to identify and study errors in post‑hoc explainers such as GNNExplainer, PGExplainer, and Integrated Gradients. The authors validate the models on millions of PubChem molecules, demonstrate how Integrated Gradients can be misled to spread attribution, and release the dataset, models, and evaluation code for future XAI tool development.

GFFMERGE: Efficient Merging of Graph Neural Force Fields and Beyond

arXiv:2606. 03232v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) have revolutionized Neural Force Fields for atomistic simulations, achieving near-quantum accuracy at reduced cost, yet adapting these models to new chemical systems requires expensive retraining of foundation models.
