Paper proposes Continuous SUN for evaluating inorganic crystal generators
CatAstro_Piyush · x · 2026-07-27
- This paper proposes Continuous SUN — a metric for generative modeling of inorganic crystals.
- SUN stands for stable, unique, and novel, focusing on whether generated crystal structures are not only plausible, but also distinct and genuinely new.
- The work appears in Machine Learning: Science and Technology as part of a Generative AI in Science special focus.
- It is a research contribution aimed at evaluating and comparing crystal generation methods more rigorously, rather than a product announcement.
