Beyond Tolerance Factor: Using Deep Learning for Prediction Formability of ABX3 Perovskite Structures

Abstract Deep learning (DL) is a modern powerful instrument for multiple purposes, including classification. In this study, this technique is applied to the task of perovskites formability. A commonly known perovskite dataset is used to try to make an instrument superior to the ‘classic’ geometric approach. The authors found that the resulting models allow the finding of inaccuracies in the data and can successfully forecast perovskite formability with an accuracy of over 98% for the best case.
