Accelerating next-generation materials research with AI.
The AI-MI interdisciplinary team works on the interface of AI and materials research.
Led by Cornell University, NSF AI-MI is accelerating the discovery of next-generation materials essential for energy, sustainability and quantum technologies.
By bringing together computer scientists, materials researchers and data scientists, AI-M tackles knowledge- and data-centric challenges to advance AI and materials science. The institute integrates data generation, AI analysis and rapid experimental feedback to dramatically reduce the time it takes to discover new materials – from months to days – and to establish reproducible, reusable workflows for the broader research community. Funded by NSF with additional support from Intel Corporation.
The Artificial Intelligence Materials Institute is a collaboration between
