The Chinese Scientists Committee (USTC) of the University of Science and Technology of China (USTC) was formed A robotic chemist powered by artificial intelligence (AI) for automated synthesis and developing catalysts for oxygen production from Martian meteorites.
The breakthrough, led by Luo Yi and professor Jiang Jun, director of the USTC Hefei National Research Center for Microscale Physical Sciences, uses a machine learning model to identify the optimal catalyst formula among more than 3,76 million possible compounds.
