Abstract
En 中文
Materials datasets usually contain many redundant (highly similar) materials due to the tinkering approach historically used in material design. This redundancy skews the performance evaluation of machine learning (ML) models when using random splitting, leading to overestimated predictive performance and poor performance on out-of-distribution samples. This issue is well-known in bioinformatics for protein function prediction, where tools like CD-HIT are used to reduce redundancy by ensuring sequence similarity among samples greater than a given threshold. In this paper, we survey the overestimated ML performance in materials science for material property prediction and propose MD-HIT, a redundancy reduction algorithm for material datasets. Applying MD-HIT to composition- and structure-based formation energy and band gap prediction problems, we demonstrate that with redundancy control, the prediction performances of the ML models on test sets tend to have relatively lower performance compared to the model with high redundancy, but better reflect models' true prediction capability.
