Determining Multi?Component Phase Diagrams with Desired Characteristics Using Active Learning

ABSTRACT: Abstract Herein, we demonstrate how to predict and experimentally validate phase diagrams for multi?component systems from a high?dimensional virtual space of all possible phase diagrams involving several elements based on small existing experimental data. The experimental data for bulk phases for known systems represents a sampling from this space, and screening the space allows multi?component phase diagrams with given design criteria to be built. This approach uses machine learning methods to predict phase diagrams and Bayesian experimental design to minimize experiments for refinement and validation, all within an active learning loop. The approach is proven by predicting and synthesizing the ferroelectric ceramic system (1??)(Ba0.61Ca0.28Sr0.11TiO3)??(BaTi0.888Zr0.0616Sn0.0028Hf0.0476O3) with a relatively high transition temperature and triple point, as well as the NiTi?based pseudo?binary phase diagram (1??)(Ti0.309Ni0.485Hf0.20Zr0.006)??(Ti0.309Ni0.485Hf0.07Zr0.068Nb0.068) designed for high transition temperature (? ? 1). Each phase diagram is validated and optimized through only three new experiments. The complexity of these compounds is beyond the reach of today's computational methods. A machine learning?based approach is proposed to predict all possible phase diagrams of a given multi?component system from a high?dimensional virtual space. By quickly screening the space, a specific phase diagram with given design criteria can be constructed. Bayesian experimental design is then employed to refine the phase diagram with as few experiments as possible.

Autonomous materials synthesis via hierarchical active learning of nonequilibrium phase diagrams.

Project description:Autonomous experimentation enabled by artificial intelligence offers a new paradigm for accelerating scientific discovery. Nonequilibrium materials synthesis is emblematic of complex, resource-intensive experimentation whose acceleration would be a watershed for materials discovery. We demonstrate accelerated exploration of metastable materials through hierarchical autonomous experimentation governed by the Scientific Autonomous Reasoning Agent (SARA). SARA integrates robotic materials synthesis using lateral gradient laser spike annealing and optical characterization along with a hierarchy of AI methods to map out processing phase diagrams. Efficient exploration of the multidimensional parameter space is achieved with nested active learning cycles built upon advanced machine learning models that incorporate the underlying physics of the experiments and end-to-end uncertainty quantification. We demonstrate SARA’s performance by autonomously mapping synthesis phase boundaries for the Bi2O3 system, leading to orders-of-magnitude acceleration in the establishment of a synthesis phase diagram that includes conditions for stabilizing δ-Bi2O3 at room temperature, a critical development for electrochemical technologies.

A machine learning approach to estimation of phase diagrams for three-component lipid mixtures.

Project description:The plasma membrane of eukaryotic cells is commonly believed to contain ordered lipid domains. The interest in understanding the origin of such domains has led to extensive studies on the phase behavior of mixed lipid systems. Three-component phase diagrams, composed of a high melting temperature (Tm) lipid, cholesterol, and a low Tm lipid have been valuable in studying lipid phase behavior. However, developing phase diagrams over the entire composition space and with precise tie-lines requires significant experimental effort. In this study, a machine learning approach was used to predict the Tm of lipids and generate phase diagrams from lipid mixtures. First, artificial neural network (ANN) was used for the prediction of Tm. The network was trained using available Tm data and was able to generate Tm values that closely matched literature results for its testing dataset. This model was then used to predict the Tm for lipids that have not yet been experimentally tested. Then, random forests (RF) and support vector machines (SVM) were trained and tested for their ability to predict a test three-component phase diagram. The model from the RF algorithm was able to generate a diagram that closely matched published results. This model was then used to generate phase diagrams for lipid mixtures at various temperatures and various degrees of unsaturation. This machine learning approach to the generation of lipid phase diagrams has the potential to save significant time and resources in studies of lipid phase behavior.

Uncomputability of phase diagrams.

Project description:The phase diagram of a material is of central importance in describing the properties and behaviour of a condensed matter system. In this work, we prove that the task of determining the phase diagram of a many-body Hamiltonian is in general uncomputable, by explicitly constructing a continuous one-parameter family of Hamiltonians H(φ), where [Formula: see text], for which this is the case. The H(φ) are translationally-invariant, with nearest-neighbour couplings on a 2D spin lattice. As well as implying uncomputablity of phase diagrams, our result also proves that undecidability can hold for a set of positive measure of a Hamiltonian's parameter space, whereas previous results only implied undecidability on a zero measure set. This brings the spectral gap undecidability results a step closer to standard condensed matter problems, where one typically studies phase diagrams of many-body models as a function of one or more continuously varying real parameters, such as magnetic field strength or pressure.

Lyapunov exponents and phase diagrams reveal multi-factorial control over TRAIL-induced apoptosis.

Project description:Receptor-mediated apoptosis proceeds via two pathways: one requiring only a cascade of initiator and effector caspases (type I behavior) and the second requiring an initiator-effector caspase cascade and mitochondrial outer membrane permeabilization (type II behavior). Here, we investigate factors controlling type I versus II phenotypes by performing Lyapunov exponent analysis of an ODE-based model of cell death. The resulting phase diagrams predict that the ratio of XIAP to pro-caspase-3 concentrations plays a key regulatory role: type I behavior predominates when the ratio is low and type II behavior when the ratio is high. Cell-to-cell variability in phenotype is observed when the ratio is close to the type I versus II boundary. By positioning multiple tumor cell lines on the phase diagram we confirm these predictions. We also extend phase space analysis to mutations affecting the rate of caspase-3 ubiquitylation by XIAP, predicting and showing that such mutations abolish all-or-none control over activation of effector caspases. Thus, phase diagrams derived from Lyapunov exponent analysis represent a means to study multi-factorial control over a complex biochemical pathway.

Nonequilibrium phase diagrams for actomyosin networks.

Project description:Living cells dynamically modulate the local morphologies of their actin networks to perform biological functions, including force transduction, intracellular transport, and cell division. A major challenge is to understand how diverse structures of the actin cytoskeleton are assembled from a limited set of molecular building blocks. Here we study the spontaneous self-assembly of a minimal model of cytoskeletal materials, consisting of semiflexible actin filaments, crosslinkers, and molecular motors. Using coarse-grained simulations, we demonstrate that by changing concentrations and kinetics of crosslinkers and motors, as well as filament lengths, we can generate three distinct structural phases of actomyosin assemblies: bundled, polarity-sorted, and contracted. We introduce new metrics to distinguish these structural phases and demonstrate their functional roles. We find that the binding kinetics of motors and crosslinkers can be tuned to optimize contractile force generation, motor transport, and mechanical response. By quantitatively characterizing the relationships between the modes of cytoskeletal self-assembly, the resulting structures, and their functional consequences, our work suggests new principles for the design of active materials.

Multi-Level-Phase Deep Learning Using Divide-and-Conquer for Scaffolding Safety.

Project description:A traditional structural analysis of scaffolding structures requires loading conditions that are only possible during design, but not in operation. Thus, this study proposes a method that can be used during operation to make an automated safety prediction for scaffolds. It implements a divide-and-conquer technique with deep learning. As a test scaffolding, a four-bay, three-story scaffold model was used. Analysis of the model led to 1411 unique safety cases for the model. To apply deep learning, a test simulation generated 1,540,000 datasets for pre-training, and an additional 141,100 datasets for testing purposes. The cases were then sub-divided into 18 categories based on failure modes at both global and local levels, along with a combination of member failures. Accordingly, the divide-and-conquer technique was applied to the 18 categories, each of which were pre-trained by a neural network. For the test datasets, the overall accuracy was 99%. The prediction model showed that 82.78% of the 1411 safety cases showed 100% accuracy for the test datasets, which contributed to the high accuracy. In addition, the higher values of precision, recall, and F1 score for the majority of the safety cases indicate good performance of the model, and a significant improvement compared with past research conducted on simpler cases. Specifically, the method demonstrated improved performance with respect to accuracy and the number of classifications. Thus, the results suggest that the methodology could be reliably applied for the safety assessment of scaffolding systems that are more complex than systems tested in past studies. Furthermore, the implemented methodology can easily be replicated for other classification problems.

Self-assembly of multi-component mitochondrial nucleoids via phase separation.

Project description:Mitochondria contain an autonomous and spatially segregated genome. The organizational unit of their genome is the nucleoid, which consists of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) and associated architectural proteins. Here, we show that phase separation is the primary physical mechanism for assembly and size control of the mitochondrial nucleoid (mt-nucleoid). The major mtDNA-binding protein TFAM spontaneously phase separates in vitro via weak, multivalent interactions into droplets with slow internal dynamics. TFAM and mtDNA form heterogenous, viscoelastic structures in vitro, which recapitulate the dynamics and behavior of mt-nucleoids in vivo. Mt-nucleoids coalesce into larger droplets in response to various forms of cellular stress, as evidenced by the enlarged and transcriptionally active nucleoids in mitochondria from patients with the premature aging disorder Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria Syndrome (HGPS). Our results point to phase separation as an evolutionarily conserved mechanism of genome organization.

High Entropy Alloys Mined From Binary Phase Diagrams.

Project description:High entropy alloys (HEA) are a new type of high-performance structural material. Their vast degrees of compositional freedom provide for extensive opportunities to design alloys with tailored properties. However, compositional complexities present challenges for alloy design. Current approaches have shown limited reliability in accounting for the compositional regions of single solid solution and composite phases. For the first time, a phenomenological method analysing binary phase diagrams to predict HEA phases is presented. The hypothesis is that the HEA structural stability is encoded within the phase diagrams. Accordingly, we introduce several phase-diagram inspired parameters and employ machine learning (ML) to classify 600+ reported HEAs based on these parameters. Compared to other large database statistical prediction models, this model gives more detailed and accurate phase predictions. Both the overall HEA prediction and specifically single-phase HEA prediction rate are above 80%. To validate our method, we demonstrated its capability in predicting HEA solid solution phases with or without intermetallics in 42 randomly selected complex compositions, with a success rate of 81%. The presented search approach with high predictive capability can be exploited to interact with and complement other computation-intense methods such as CALPHAD in providing an accelerated and precise HEA design.

Using empirical phase diagrams to understand the role of intramolecular dynamics in immunoglobulin G stability.

Project description:Understanding the relationship between protein dynamics and stability is of paramount importance to the fields of biology and pharmaceutics. Clarifying this relationship is complicated by the large amount of experimental data that must be generated and analyzed if motions that exist over the wide range of timescales are to be included. To address this issue, we propose an approach that utilizes a multidimensional vector-based empirical phase diagram (EPD) to analyze a set of dynamic results acquired across a temperature-pH perturbation plane. This approach is applied to a humanized immunoglobulin G1 (IgG1), a protein of major biological and pharmaceutical importance whose dynamic nature is linked to its multiple biological roles. Static and dynamic measurements are used to characterize the IgG and to construct both static and dynamic EPDs. Between pH 5 and 8, a single, pH-dependent transition is observed that corresponds to thermal unfolding of the IgG. Under more acidic conditions, evidence exists for the formation of a more compact, aggregation resistant state of the immunoglobulin, known as A-form. The dynamics-based EPD presents a considerably more detailed pattern of apparent phase transitions over the temperature-pH plane. The utility and potential applications of this approach are discussed.

Learning in complex, multi-component cognitive systems: Different learning challenges within the same system.

Project description:Using word learning as an example of a complex system, we investigated how differences in the structure of the subcomponents in which learning occurs can have significant consequences for the challenge of integrating new information within such systems. Learning a new word involves integrating information into the two key stages/subcomponents of processing within the word production system. In the first stage, multiple semantic features are mapped onto a single word. Conversely, in the second stage, a single word is mapped onto multiple segmental features. We tested whether the unitary goal of word learning leads to different local outcomes in these two stages because of their reversed mapping patterns. Neurotypical individuals (N = 17) learned names and semantic features for pictures of unfamiliar objects presented in semantically related, segmentally related and unrelated blocks. Both similarity types interfered with word learning. However, feature learning was differentially affected within the two subcomponents of word production. Semantic similarity facilitated learning distinctive semantic features (i.e., features unique to each item), whereas segmental similarity facilitated learning shared segmental features (i.e., features common to several items in a block). These results are compatible with an incremental learning model in which learning not only strengthens certain associations but also weakens others according to the local goals of each subcomponent. More generally, they demonstrate that the same overall learning goal can lead to opposite learning outcomes in the subcomponents of a complex system. The general principles uncovered may extend beyond word learning to other complex systems with multiple subcomponents. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2019 APA, all rights reserved).
