Abstract: With increasing demand in many areas, materials are constantly evolving. However, they still have numerous practical constraints. The rational design and discovery of new materials can create a huge technological and social impact. However, such rational design and discovery require a holistic, multi-stage design process, including the design of the material composition, material structure, material properties as well as process design and engineering. Such a complex exploration using traditional scientific methods is not only blind but also a huge waste of time and resources. Machine learning (ML), which is used across data to find correlations in material properties and understand the chemical properties of materials, is being considered a new way to explore the materials field. This paper reviews some of the major recent advances and applications of ML in the field of properties prediction of materials and discusses the key challenges and opportunities in this cross-cutting area.
