Data-driven approaches for autonomous experimentation: Insights into modeling and prediction dynamics of metal–organic frameworks synthesis
摘要
Machine learning (ML) can advance autonomous experimentation in material synthesis by using predictive models to guide experiments, thus reducing the need for trial-and-error approaches. This study develops models to assist zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) synthesis by predicting outcomes for optimizing experiment conditions. We study the effect of hyperparameter tuning on XGBoost model performance and use genetic algorithm for optimal parameter selection. Additionally, the model provides interpretable predictions, which advance our understanding of the synthesis conditions that affect ZIF-8 morphology. These findings demonstrate how models can streamline materials synthesis and build the foundation for future autonomous experimentation.
