Sparks/Baird Materials Informatics

Sterling Baird and Taylor Sparks Materials Informatics Projects

Hi there 👋

🙋‍ Taylor Sparks: Associate Professor of Mat. Sci. & Eng. @ University of Utah and co-host of Materialism podcast

🙋‍ Sterling Baird: Ph.D. candidate (8/2020-8/2023) in the Sparks Group focusing on data-driven materials discovery

The @sparks-baird organization hosts the joint efforts between Taylor and Sterling in driving the acceleration of materials informatics where AI meets materials science. These applications range from materials property prediction and generative models to exploratory materials optimization and autonomous scientific research.

Want to get involved? Be sure to click Follow at the top-right to stay up-to-date on the latest developments. If you're having issues using one of the repositories or want to discuss topics related to it, feel free to look through the existing issues and discussions for each repository and add new ones if your problem is different. We'll try to get back to you soon to help you with your problem. If you'd like to contribute to a repository, check out GitHub's guide to project contributions. The same principles apply to suggesting and incorporating changes into our public repositories.

We subscribe to the principle of open-sourcing from the start. This allows for early and iterative community feedback as well as letting others know what we're interested in and what we're working on. As a result, some repositories will be a work-in-progress (WIP). These are some of the best ones to collaborate on! Where appropriate, we are also exploring consolidating repositories and porting functionality into larger "hub" repositories like pymatgen.
