This $2,250,000 Project Grant award from the Office of Advanced Cyberinfrastructure within the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE) program seeks to develop a software platform and infrastructure for training machine learning (ML) models at scale to predict the properties of molecular and materials systems. The key objectives are to:

  1. Establish a technological paradigm and software infrastructure for developing ML models capable of predicting the properties of unseen molecular and materials systems, enabling accelerated computational discovery of new molecules and materials.

  2. Facilitate access, sharing, and discovery of large amounts of first principles and experimental data to enable the development of ML models on an unprecedented scale.

  3. Incorporate uncertainty quantification approaches into the foundation ML model, called FERMAT, to ensure the robustness of predictions.

The project will be carried out in partnership with Amazon Web Services and across four universities - New York University, University of Minnesota, University of Florida, and Brigham Young University. A key sub-award to Brigham Young University will focus on developing theoretical and computational tools for quantifying uncertainty in the foundation models.
