Traditionally, materials development and molecular design have been driven by experiments, theoretical studies, and simulations. In recent years, however, a new approach—data science—has been gaining prominence. This data-driven methodology, known as Materials Informatics, has emerged as one of the hottest research areas today.

In our group, we acquire the data required for this approach through experiments, literature mining, and large-scale simulations. For simulations, we utilize supercomputers such as Fugaku, Japan’s flagship system, and Genkai, a powerful system at Kyushu University.

By generating unique datasets that only we can create using these high-performance computing resources, we apply advanced data science techniques to accelerate the discovery of novel materials and molecules, and to enable high-precision simulations with greater efficiency.
