By leveraging machine learning (ML) on large, structured datasets, researchers can perform high-throughput screening and testing of new materials at unprecedented scales, significantly accelerating the discovery cycle of novel compounds with desired properties. In this paradigm, **data becomes the essential fuel powering ML models** that can guide experiments, reduce costs, and unlock breakthroughs faster than ever before. -However, **this field is hampered by** **fragmented datasets** **that vary in format, parameters, and scope, presenting the following challenges:** +However, **this field is hampered by fragmented datasets that vary in format, parameters, and scope, presenting the following challenges:** - Dataset integration issues (eg. inconsistent formats or field definitions, incompatible calculations) - Biases in dataset composition (for eg. Material Project's focus on oxides and battery materials)
