Predicting defect behavior in B2 intermetallics by merging ab initio modeling and machine learning

Machine learning a defect’s effect A method for quickly predicting the dominant equilibrium atomic-level defects in a material is developed by researchers in the USA. Crystalline materials derive many of their attributes from the regular and symmetric arrangement of their atoms. Consequently, a miss...
