How to build on sand: machine learning on noisy data to design concrete

Noise is the enemy of machine learning. Noise in the training data leads to uncertain predictions. However, noise can contain physical information, so we introduce a machine learning architecture that can extract crucial information out of noise itself. We apply this formalism to specify two concrete mixes: one has high resistance to carbonation, and the other has low environmental impact. The proposed mixes are experimentally validated. So watch this webinar to hear how Alchemite improves accuracy, requiring up to 85% fewer experiments to finalize a formation, saving you time and money.

Apply Alchemite™ machine learning to academic research

Alchemite™ is a novel machine learning method originally developed in the group of Dr Gareth Conduit at the University of Cambridge.

In this webinar, with live Q&A, Gareth Conduit introduces the method and provides examples of its application to academic research in materials science, chemistry, battery research, and life sciences.

Training machine learning models with real experimental and process data

Machine learning accelerates innovation in chemicals, materials, life sciences, and manufacturing by delivering deep data insights, guiding experiment, and finding new solutions to complex optimization problems.

In this webinar, we outline some of those difficulties and how they are overcome in the Alchemite Suite software.

Can Agentic AI transform chemicals and materials R&D?

Agentic AI – the use of autonomous, tool-using AI systems with Large Language Models (LLMs) as decision engines – is emerging as a transformative force for R&D. Rather than isolated models, agentic systems coordinate and automate workflows across diverse software and data ecosystems. In this webinar, we share early insights from industry discussions and show results from our development work in this area at Intellegens.
