Encode/decode a crystal structure to/from a grayscale PNG image for direct use with image-based machine learning models such as Palette.

Emerging

This tool helps materials scientists and researchers quickly apply advanced image-based machine learning models to crystal structure data. It converts crystal structure files (like from PyMatGen) into grayscale PNG images, acting like a QR code for your structures. These images can then be fed into state-of-the-art image AI models, and the tool can convert the images back into crystal structures, allowing you to leverage powerful AI for materials discovery or analysis.

No commits in the last 6 months. Available on PyPI.

Use this if you want to apply cutting-edge image-based machine learning models to your crystal structure data without extensive code modification.

Not ideal if you require perfect preservation of numerical precision, as there is a small round-off error when encoding data into PNG images.
