The MAterials Simulation Toolkit (MAST) is a workflow manager and post-processing tool for ab initio defect and diffusion workflows. MAST codifies research knowledge and best practices for such workflows, and allows for the generation and management of easily modified and reproducible workflows, where data is stored along with workflow information for data provenance tracking. MAST is open-source and available for download (see PDF for links).

As data science and machine learning methods are taking on an increasingly important role in the materials research community, there is a need for the development of machine learning software tools that are easy to use (even for nonexperts with no pr ogramming ability), provide flexible access to the most important algorithms, and codify best practices of machine learning model development and evaluation. Here, we introduce the Materials Simulation Toolkit for Machine Learning (MAST-ML), an open source Python-based software package designed to broaden and accelerate the use of machine learning in materials science research. MAST-ML provides predefined routines for many input setup, model fitting, and post-analysis tasks, as well as a simple structure for executing a multi-step machine learning model workflow. In this paper, we describe how MAST-ML is used to streamline and accelerate the execution of machine learning problems. We walk through how to acquire and run MAST-ML, demonstrate how to execute different components of a supervised machine learning workflow via a customized input file, and showcase a number of features and analyses conducted automatically during a MAST-ML run. Further, we demonstrate the utility of MAST-ML by showcasing examples of recent materials informatics studies which used MAST-ML to formulate and evaluate various machine learning models for an array of materials applications. Finally, we lay out a vision of how MAST-ML, together with complementary software packages and emerging cyberinfrastructure, can advance the rapidly growing field of materials informatics, with a focus on producing machine learning models easily, reproducibly, and in a manner that facilitates model evolution and improvement in the future.
MAST-SEY is an open-source Monte Carlo code capable of calculating secondary electron emission using input data generated entirely from first principle (density functional theory) calculations. It utilizes the complex dielectric function and Penns th eory for inelastic scattering processes, and relativistic Schrodinger theory by means of a partial-wave expansion method to govern elastic scattering. It allows the user to include explicitly calculated momentum dependence of the dielectric function, as well as to utilize first-principle density of states in secondary electron generation, which provides a more complete description of the underlying physics. In this paper we thoroughly describe the theoretical aspects of the modeling, as used in the code, and present sample results obtained for copper and aluminum.
Machine Learning (ML) has the potential to accelerate discovery of new materials and shed light on useful properties of existing materials. A key difficulty when applying ML in Materials Science is that experimental datasets of material properties te nd to be small. In this work we show how material descriptors can be learned from the structures present in large scale datasets of material simulations; and how these descriptors can be used to improve the prediction of an experimental property, the energy of formation of a solid. The material descriptors are learned by training a Graph Neural Network to regress simulated formation energies from a materials atomistic structure. Using these learned features for experimental property predictions outperforms existing methods that are based solely on chemical composition. Moreover, we find that the advantage of our approach increases as the generalization requirements of the task are made more stringent, for example when limiting the amount of training data or when generalizing to unseen chemical spaces.
Driven by the unprecedented computational power available to scientific research, the use of computers in solid-state physics, chemistry and materials science has been on a continuous rise. This review focuses on the software used for the simulation of matter at the atomic scale. We provide a comprehensive overview of major codes in the field, and analyze how citations to these codes in the academic literature have evolved since 2010. An interactive version of the underlying data set is available at https://atomistic.software .
Graph neural networks (GNN) have been shown to provide substantial performance improvements for representing and modeling atomistic materials compared with descriptor-based machine-learning models. While most existing GNN models for atomistic predict ions are based on atomic distance information, they do not explicitly incorporate bond angles, which are critical for distinguishing many atomic structures. Furthermore, many material properties are known to be sensitive to slight changes in bond angles. We present an Atomistic Line Graph Neural Network (ALIGNN), a GNN architecture that performs message passing on both the interatomic bond graph and its line graph corresponding to bond angles. We demonstrate that angle information can be explicitly and efficiently included, leading to improved performance on multiple atomistic prediction tasks. We use ALIGNN models for predicting 52 solid-state and molecular properties available in the JARVIS-DFT, Materials project, and QM9 databases. ALIGNN can outperform some previously reported GNN models on atomistic prediction tasks by up to 85 % in accuracy with better or comparable model training speed.
