Automated Materials Data and Knowledge Extraction using Machine Learning and Large Language Models
Read the original on arXiv AI →The review traces the development of machine‑learning techniques for extracting materials data and knowledge from scientific literature, progressing from rule‑based pipelines to NLP models, transformer encoders, and finally large language models and agentic systems that handle text, tables, and figures. It highlights how these methods enable the creation of queryable materials databases, knowledge graphs, generic question answering, AI co‑scientists, chatbots, and closed‑loop discovery with autonomous labs. The paper critically evaluates datasets, extraction accuracy, computational costs, and offers practical guidelines, while outlining open challenges such as full tetrahedron extraction, benchmark scarcity, and terminology resolution.
