Machine Learning for Materials Science provides the fundamentals and useful insight into where Machine Learning (ML) will have the greatest impact for the materials science researcher. This digital primer provides example methods for ML applied to experiments and simulations, including the early stages of building an ML solution for a materials science problem, concentrating on where and how to get data and some of the considerations when choosing an approach. The authors demonstrate how to build more robust models, how to make sure that your colleagues trust the results, and how to use ML to accelerate or augment simulations, by introducing methods in which ML can be applied to analyze and process experimental data. They also cover how to build integrated closed-loop experiments where ML is used to plan the course of a materials optimization experiment and how ML can be utilized in the discovery of materials on computers.

Machine learning methods have lowered the cost of exploring new structures of unknown compounds, and can be used to predict reasonable expectations and subsequently validated by experimental results. As new insights and several elaborative tools have been developed for materials science and engineering in recent years, it is an appropriate time to present a book covering recent progress in this field. Searchable and interactive databases can promote research on emerging materials. Recently, databases containing a large number of high-quality materials properties for new advanced materials discovery have been developed. These approaches are set to make a significant impact on human life and, with numerous commercial developments emerging, will become a major academic topic in the coming years. This authoritative and comprehensive book will be of interest to both existing researchers in this field as well as others in the materials science community who wish to take advantage of these powerful techniques. The book offers a global spread of authors, from USA, Canada, UK, Japan, France, Russia, China and Singapore, who are all world recognized experts in their separate areas. With content relevant to both academic and commercial points of view, and offering an accessible overview of recent progress and potential future directions, the book will interest graduate students, postgraduate researchers, and consultants and industrial engineers.

This book introduces the approach of Machine Learning (ML) based predictive models in the design of composite materials to achieve the required properties for certain applications. ML can learn from existing experimental data obtained from very limited number of experiments and subsequently can be trained to find solutions of the complex non-linear, multi-dimensional functional relationships without any prior assumptions about their nature. In this case the ML models can learn from existing experimental data obtained from (1) composite design based on various properties of the matrix material and fillers/reinforcements (2) material processing during fabrication (3) property relationships. Modelling of these relationships using ML methods significantly reduce the experimental work involved in designing new composites, and therefore offer a new avenue for material design and properties. The book caters to students, academics and researchers who are interested in the field of material composite modelling and design.
