description Abstract Understanding fracture is critical to the design of resilient nanomaterials.

We focus on a particular technologically relevant material system, graphene, and apply a deep learning method to the study of such nanomaterials and explore the parameter space necessary for calibrating machine-learning predictions to meaningful results.
