Researchers are reading “Automation and Machine Learning for Accelerated Polymer Characterization and Development: Past, Potential, and a Path Forward”, published in Macromolecules.

After briefly reviewing the state of the field and the broad classes of autonomous efforts, this perspective outlines several high-value focus areas for future ML-guided characterization efforts.

Autonomous approaches could allow the systematic study of rare and nonequilibrium phenomena, provide dramatically greater measurement efficiency through targeting of cutting-edge, resource-intensive characterization, and enable a higher level of thinking and experimental planning for human investigators.
