Fields of Research

Machine learning of structure-property-relationships

  • Patterns in chemical sequences that control, for instance, the interaction of copolymers with lipid membranes.
  • Hidden physical variables in chemical space revealed by „trans-encoder“ neural networks [1].
  • Inverse problems and artificial intelligence in soft materials design.

Static and dynamic conformation patterns

  • Unsupervised learning of classes of polymer conformations and collective ordering.
  • Precursor patterns for crystal nucleation in entangled polymer melts.

Data-driven coarse-graining of simulation models

  • Machine learned implicit solvents and their potential for larger scale simulations of self-assembly.
  • Transfer learning of physical patterns between different levels of coarse-graining.
