Machine-learning analysis of X-ray data picks out key catalytic properties

October 22, 2019 0 Comments Biochemistry, Chemistry, Computer Modeling, encryption, Hacking, Inorganic Chemistry, Physics, Spintronics Research

Scientists seeking to design new catalysts to convert carbon dioxide (CO2) to methane have used a novel artificial intelligence (AI) approach to identify key catalytic properties. By using this method to track the size, structure, and chemistry of catalytic particles under real reaction conditions, the scientists can identify which properties correspond to the best catalytic performance, and then use that information to guide the design of more efficient catalysts.
