You are cordially invited to attend the biweekly Brookhaven AI Mixer (BAM). BAM includes three short talks on AI research happening at BNL, followed by an open mixer over coffee and snacks for everyone to network and discuss all things AI. The first half hour will consist of presentations that will be available via ZOOM, and the second half hour will be for in person only networking.
Join us every other Tuesday at noon in CDSD's Training Room (building 725, 2nd floor) to learn about interesting AI methods and applications, engage with potential collaborators, prepare for pending FASST funding calls, and build a community of AI for Science at BNL.

Speaker: Dr. Zhangyang Atlas Wang is the Research Director at XTX Markets, one of the world's leading high-frequency trading firms. He founded and leads the firm's AI Lab in New York City, focused on developing large-scale foundation models for financial time series and market data, powered by XTX's proprietary AI infrastructure. He is currently on leave from his position as the Temple Foundation Endowed Associate Professor at The University of Texas at Austin. His academic research has received numerous awards, and he has mentored a broad network of Ph.D. students and postdoctoral researchers. Many of his alumni now hold tenure-track faculty positions (eight to date) or senior research roles in industry (nineteen and counting).

Refreshments will be served after the seminar in the first-floor atrium.
Artificial intelligence (AI)-based methods and computational materials science continue to make inroads into accelerated materials design and development. I will review Al-enabled advances made in the subfield of polymer informatics, with a particular focus on the design of application-specific practical polymeric materials. I will describe exemplar design attempts within a few critical and emerging application spaces, including materials designs for storing, producing, and conserving energy, and those that can prepare us for a sustainable economy powered by recyclable and/or biodegradable polymers. Al- powered workflows help efficiently search the staggeringly large chemical and configurational space of materials, using modern machine-learning (ML) algorithms to solve forward and inverse materials design problems. A practical informatics-based design protocol involves creating a set of application-specific target property criteria, building ML model predictors for those relevant target properties, enumerating or generating a tangible population of viable polymers, and selecting candidates that meet design recommendations. The protocol will be demonstrated for several energy and sustainability-related applications. Finally, I will offer an outlook on the lingering obstacles that must be overcome to achieve widespread adoption of informatics-driven protocols in industrial-scale materials development.
