Materials Scholar Website Code

Materials Scholar Website

Matscholar is a research effort based at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory with the aim of organizing the world's materials knowlegde by applying Natural Language Processing (NLP) to materials science literature. To date, we have extracted and curated useful materials data from over 5 million materials abstracts and it is freely accessible via our website and public API.

This repo houses the code for the website, which is built with Plotly Dash.

If you would like to submit feedback to help us improve the app, please see the Matscholar category on our official support forum.

If you have any other questions please contact our development team at [email protected].

Tests

Matscholar is supported by Toyota Research Institute through the Accelerated Materials Design and Discovery program. Abstract data was downloaded from the ScienceDirect API between October 2017 and September 2018, and the Scopus API in July 2019 via http://api.elsevier.com and http://www.scopus.com. Abstract data was also downloaded from the SpringerNature API and Royal Society of Chemistry sources.
