Abstract
ConspectusNanoporous frameworks are a large and diverse family of supramolecular materials, whose chemical building units (organic, inorganic, or both) are assembled into a 3D architecture with well-defined connectivity and topology, featuring intrinsic porosity. These materials play a key role in various industrial processes and applications, such as energy production and conversion, fluid separation, gas storage, water harvesting, and many more. The performance and suitability of nanoporous materials for each specific application are directly related to both their physical and chemical properties, and their determination is crucial for process engineering and optimization of performances. In this Account, we focus on some recent developments in the multiscale modeling of physical properties of nanoporous frameworks, highlighting the latest advances in three specific areas: mechanical properties, thermal properties, and adsorption.In the study of the mechanical behavior of nanoporous materials, the past few years have seen a rapid acceleration of research. For example, computational resources have been pooled to create a public large-scale database of elastic constants as part of the Materials Project initiative to accelerate innovation in materials research: those can serve as a basis for data-based discovery of materials with targeted properties, as well as the training of machine learning predictor models.The large-scale prediction of thermal behavior, in comparison, is not yet routinely performed at such a large scale. Tentative databases have been assembled at the DFT level on specific families of materials, such as zeolites, but prediction at larger scale currently requires the use of transferable classical force fields, whose accuracy can be limited.Finally, adsorption is naturally one of the most studied physical properties of nanoporous frameworks, as fluid separation or storage is often the primary target for these materials. We highlight the recent achievements and open challenges for adsorption prediction at a large scale, focusing in particular on the accuracy of computational models and the reliability of comparisons with experimental data available. We detail some recent methodological improvements in the prediction of adsorption-related properties: in particular, we describe the recent research efforts to go beyond the study of thermodynamic quantities (uptake, adsorption enthalpy, and thermodynamic selectivity) and predict transport properties using data-based methods and high-throughput computational schemes. Finally, we stress the importance of data-based methods of addressing all sources of uncertainty.The Account concludes with some perspectives about the latest developments and open questions in data-based approaches and the integration of computational and experimental data together in the materials discovery loop.

Abstract
ChatMOF is an artificial intelligence (AI) system that is built to predict and generate metal-organic frameworks (MOFs). By leveraging a large-scale language model (GPT-4, GPT-3.5-turbo, and GPT-3.5-turbo-16k), ChatMOF extracts key details from textual inputs and delivers appropriate responses, thus eliminating the necessity for rigid and formal structured queries. The system is comprised of three core components (i.e., an agent, a toolkit, and an evaluator) and it forms a robust pipeline that manages a variety of tasks, including data retrieval, property prediction, and structure generations. ChatMOF shows high accuracy rates of 96.9% for searching, 95.7% for predicting, and 87.5% for generating tasks with GPT-4. Additionally, it successfully creates materials with user-desired properties from natural language. The study further explores the merits and constraints of utilizing large language models (LLMs) in combination with database and machine learning in material sciences and showcases its transformative potential for future advancements.

Abstract
Machine learning holds significant research potential in the field of nanotechnology, enabling nanomaterial structure and property predictions, facilitating materials design and discovery, and reducing the need for time-consuming and labor-intensive experiments and simulations. In contrast to their achiral counterparts, the application of machine learning for chiral nanomaterials is still in its infancy, with a limited number of publications to date. This is despite the great potential of machine learning to advance the development of new sustainable chiral materials with high values of optical activity, circularly polarized luminescence, and enantioselectivity, as well as for the analysis of structural chirality by electron microscopy. In this review, an analysis of machine learning methods used for studying achiral nanomaterials is provided, subsequently offering guidance on adapting and extending this work to chiral nanomaterials. An overview of chiral nanomaterials within the framework of synthesis-structure-property-application relationships is presented and insights on how to leverage machine learning for the study of these highly complex relationships are provided. Some key recent publications are reviewed and discussed on the application of machine learning for chiral nanomaterials. Finally, the review captures the key achievements, ongoing challenges, and the prospective outlook for this very important research field.

Abstract
We developed Material Graph Digitizer (MatGD), which is a tool for digitizing a data line from scientific graphs. The algorithm behind the tool consists of four steps: (1) identifying graphs within subfigures, (2) separating axes and data sections, (3) discerning the data lines by eliminating irrelevant graph objects and matching with the legend, and (4) data extraction and saving. From the 62,534 papers in the areas of batteries, catalysis, and metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), 501,045 figures were mined. Remarkably, our tool showcased performance with over 99% accuracy in legend marker and text detection. Moreover, its capability for data line separation stood at 66%, which is much higher compared to those of other existing figure-mining tools. We believe that this tool will be integral to collecting both past and future data from publications, and these data can be used to train various machine learning models that can enhance material predictions and new materials discovery.

Abstract
The existence of a very large number of porous materials is a great opportunity to develop innovative technologies for carbon dioxide (CO2) capture to address the climate change problem. On the other hand, identifying the most promising adsorbent and membrane candidates using iterative experimental testing and brute-force computer simulations is very challenging due to the enormous number and variety of porous materials. Artificial intelligence (AI) has recently been integrated into molecular modeling of porous materials, specifically metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), to accelerate the design and discovery of high-performing adsorbents and membranes for CO2 adsorption and separation. In this perspective, we highlight the pioneering works in which AI, molecular simulations, and experiments have been combined to produce exceptional MOFs and MOF-based composites that outperform traditional porous materials in CO2 capture. We outline the future directions by discussing the current opportunities and challenges in the field of harnessing experiments, theory, and AI for accelerated discovery of porous materials for CO2 capture.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have attracted tremendous interest because of their tunable structures, functionalities, and physiochemical properties. The nearly infinite combinations of metal nodes and organic linkers have led to the synthesis of over 100,000 experimental MOFs and the construction of millions of hypothetical counterparts. It is intractable to identify the best candidates in the immense chemical space of MOFs for applications via conventional trial-to-error experiments or brute-force simulations. Over the past several years, machine learning (ML) has substantially transformed the way of MOF discovery, design, and synthesis. Driven by the abundant data from experiments or simulations, ML can not only efficiently and accurately predict MOF properties but also quantitatively derive structure-property relationships for rational design and screening. In this Perspective, we summarize recent achievements in leveraging ML for MOFs from the aspects of data acquisition, featurization, model training, and applications. Then, current challenges and new opportunities are discussed for the future exploration of ML to accelerate the development of new MOFs in this vibrant field.

Abstract
We use prompt engineering to guide ChatGPT in the automation of text mining of metal-organic framework (MOF) synthesis conditions from diverse formats and styles of the scientific literature. This effectively mitigates ChatGPT's tendency to hallucinate information, an issue that previously made the use of large language models (LLMs) in scientific fields challenging. Our approach involves the development of a workflow implementing three different processes for text mining, programmed by ChatGPT itself. All of them enable parsing, searching, filtering, classification, summarization, and data unification with different trade-offs among labor, speed, and accuracy. We deploy this system to extract 26 257 distinct synthesis parameters pertaining to approximately 800 MOFs sourced from peer-reviewed research articles. This process incorporates our ChemPrompt Engineering strategy to instruct ChatGPT in text mining, resulting in impressive precision, recall, and F1 scores of 90-99%. Furthermore, with the data set built by text mining, we constructed a machine-learning model with over 87% accuracy in predicting MOF experimental crystallization outcomes and preliminarily identifying important factors in MOF crystallization. We also developed a reliable data-grounded MOF chatbot to answer questions about chemical reactions and synthesis procedures. Given that the process of using ChatGPT reliably mines and tabulates diverse MOF synthesis information in a unified format while using only narrative language requiring no coding expertise, we anticipate that our ChatGPT Chemistry Assistant will be very useful across various other chemistry subdisciplines.
