Do we really need more data?

Data vs Knowledge

Functionality = F ( x1 , x2 , x3 , x4 , x5 , x6 , x7 , x8 ……)

Issues: • how many variables? • which variables are important? • classify behavior among variables • making quantitative predictions …relate functionality to variables …

• traditionally we describe them by empirical equations: •Quantitative Structure Activity Relationships (QSARs) are derived from data mining techniques not assuming a priori which physics is the most important

Need to build database with these variables

Informatics, statistical learning

To transform the “Materials Genome” from a concept to reality we need an information system that can enable and accelerate the Data to Knowledge transformation (the new paradigm for Materials-

by-Design)
