Computer simulations and machine learning provide complementary ways of identifying structure/property relationships that are typically targeting toward predicting the ideal singular structure to maximise the performance on a given application. This can be inconsistent with experimental observations that measure the collective properties of entire samples of structures that contain distributions or mixture of structures, even when synthesized and processed with care. Metallic nanoparticle catalysts are an important example. In this study we have used a multi-stage machine learning workflow to identify the correct structure/property relationships of Pt nanoparticles relevant to oxygen reduction (ORR), hydrogen oxidation (HOR) and hydrogen evolution (HER) reactions. By including classification prior to regression we identified two distinct classes of nanoparticles, and subsequently generate the class-specific models based on experimentally relevant criteria that are consistent with observations. These multi-structure/multi-property relationships, predicting properties averaged over a large sample of structures, provide a more accessible way to transfer data-driven predictions into the lab.

In this review, we present the applications of chemometric techniques for green and sustainable chemistry. The techniques, such as cluster analysis, principal component analysis, artificial neural networks, and multivariate ranking techniques, are applied for dealing with missing data, grouping or classification purposes, selection of green material, or processes. The areas of application are mainly finding sustainable solutions in terms of solvents, reagents, processes, or conditions of processes. Another important area is filling the data gaps in datasets to more fully characterize sustainable options. It is significant as many experiments are avoided, and the results are obtained with good approximation. Multivariate statistics are tools that support the application of quantitative structure–property relationships, a widely applied technique in green chemistry.

AbstractThe elementary excitations in metallic glasses (MGs), i.e., β processes that involve hopping between nearby sub-basins, underlie many unusual properties of the amorphous alloys. A high-efficacy prediction of the propensity for those activated processes from solely the atomic positions, however, has remained a daunting challenge. Recently, employing well-designed site environment descriptors and machine learning (ML), notable progress has been made in predicting the propensity for stress-activated β processes (i.e., shear transformations) from the static structure. However, the complex tensorial stress field and direction-dependent activation could induce non-trivial noises in the data, limiting the accuracy of the structure-property mapping learned. Here, we focus on the thermally activated elementary excitations and generate high-quality data in several Cu-Zr MGs, allowing quantitative mapping of the potential energy landscape. After fingerprinting the atomic environment with short- and medium-range interstice distribution, ML can identify the atoms with strong resistance or high compliance to thermal activation, at a high accuracy over ML models for stress-driven activation events. Interestingly, a quantitative “between-task” transferring test reveals that our learnt model can also generalize to predict the propensity of shear transformation. Our dataset is potentially useful for benchmarking future ML models on structure-property relationships in MGs.
