1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

The development of machine-learning models for atomic-scale simulations has greatly benefited from the large databases of materials and molecular properties, computed using electronic-structure calculations. Recently, these databases enabled the training of "universal" models that aim to make accurate predictions for arbitrary atomic geometries and compositions. However, many of these databases were originally designed for materials discovery, focusing primarily on equilibrium structures. Here, we introduce a dataset designed to train machine-learning models to make reasonable predictions for arbitrary structures. Starting with relatively small sets of stable structures, we built the dataset aiming to achieve "massive atomic diversity" (MAD) by aggressively modifying these structures and utilizing highly consistent electronic-structure settings for property calculations. Despite containing fewer than 100,000 entries, the MAD dataset has already enabled the training of universal interatomic potentials that rival those trained on datasets containing two to three orders of magnitude more data. We detail the design philosophy of the dataset and introduce low-dimensional structural latent space descriptors that can be used as a general-purpose materials cartography tool.
