PyMKS – The Materials Knowledge System in Python

Binder Gitter Chat Travis CI PyPI version License Documentation Status

MKS

The Materials Knowledge Systems (MKS) is a novel data science approach for solving multiscale materials science problems. It uses techniques from physics, machine learning, regression analysis, signal processing, and spatial statistics to create processing-structure-property relationships. The MKS carries the potential to bridge multiple length scales using localization and homogenization linkages, and provides a data driven framework for solving inverse material design problems.

PyMKS

The Materials Knowledge Materials in Python (PyMKS) framework is an object-oriented set of tools and examples, written in Python, that provide high-level access to the MKS framework for rapid creation and analysis of structure-property-processing relationships. A short introduction to how to use PyMKS is outlined below and example cases can be found in the examples section. Both code and examples contributions are welcome.

Documentation

Start with the PyMKS examples, especially the introductory example.
