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 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.

The paper introduces a new way to evaluate materials graph neural networks (GNNs) by measuring how many trainable parameter‑space directions are needed to achieve good performance. Using random‑subspace intrinsic‑dimension analysis, the authors train CGCNN, ALIGNN, and DimeNet++ on six prediction tasks and plot recovery curves that separate final accuracy from the dimensional demand required to reach it. The study finds that different tasks and architectures vary in how sensitive they are to dimensional restriction, revealing insights that final error metrics alone miss.
