| |
|
| | ## Dataset Summary |
| |
|
| | This dataset is a snapshot of the **Materials Project (MP)** materials database, exported from the MP **Summary** endpoint using `mp-api`. |
| |
|
| | Snapshot date: **2026-01-18**. |
| |
|
| | The `structure` column stores **pymatgen `Structure` JSON** serialized as a string. |
| |
|
| | Important: For several rich/large MP sub-documents (e.g. XAS, DOS, band structure), this dataset stores only *availability flags* (`*_is_available`) rather than the full objects. |
| |
|
| | ## Source |
| |
|
| | Upstream data source: the Materials Project database and API documentation. |
| |
|
| | Materials Project is an open resource for computed materials properties and structures, built using high-throughput DFT workflows and a curated data model. |
| |
|
| | ## Preprocessing |
| |
|
| | Structures and properties were downloaded using `mp-api` (version `0.45.15`) with `MPRester.materials.summary.search()`. |
| |
|
| | The export used a fixed field list: |
| | - “regular” scalar fields (energetics, electronic structure, magnetism, elasticity-related, dielectric-related), |
| | - `material_id`, `structure`, and symmetry (used to derive `space_group_number` and `crystal_system`), |
| | - availability checks for selected Emmet (internal document model) sub-documents: `xas`, `bandstructure`, `dos`, `decomposes_to`, `types_of_magnetic_species`. |
| |
|
| | ## Dataset Structure |
| |
|
| | ### Data Instances |
| |
|
| | Each row corresponds to one Materials Project entry identified by `material_id` (e.g., `mp-149`), with an associated crystal structure and computed properties. |
| |
|
| | ### Data Fields |
| |
|
| | - `material_id` (string): Materials Project material identifier (e.g., `mp-149`). |
| | - `formula` (string): Reduced chemical formula string. |
| | - `structure` (string): **pymatgen `Structure` JSON** (serialized) for the entry’s structure. |
| | - `space_group_number` (int): International space group number from `mp_doc.symmetry.number`. |
| | - `crystal_system` (string): Crystal system label from `mp_doc.symmetry.crystal_system`. |
| | - `deprecated` (bool): Whether the entry is marked deprecated upstream. |
| |
|
| | Energetics / thermodynamics: |
| | - `uncorrected_energy_per_atom` (float) |

| | - `total_magnetization_normalized_formula_units` (float) |
| | - `num_magnetic_sites` (int) |
| | - `num_unique_magnetic_sites` (int) |
| |
|
| | Additional properties (when available): |
| | - `universal_anisotropy` (float) |
| | - `homogeneous_poisson` (float) |
| | - `e_total` (float) |
| | - `e_ionic` (float) |
| | - `e_electronic` (float) |
| | - `n` (float) |
| | - `e_ij_max` (float) |
| |
|
| | Composition helpers: |
| | - `possible_species` (list[string]) |
| | - `theoretical` (bool) |
| |
|
| | Availability flags (full objects are not included in this dataset): |
| | - `xas_is_available` (bool) |
| | - `bandstructure_is_available` (bool) |
| | - `dos_is_available` (bool) |
| | - `decomposes_to_is_available` (bool) |
| | - `types_of_magnetic_species_is_available` (bool) |
| |
|
| | Note: Numeric fields are preserved as-is from the MP Summary documents. Refer to official Materials Project documentation for definitions and conventions. |
| |
|
| | ### Data Splits |
| |
|
| | Single split: |
| | - `train`: 210,579 examples |
| |
|
| | ## Usage |
| |
|
| | Load the dataset: |
| |
|
| | ```python |
| | from datasets import load_dataset |
| | |
| | ds = load_dataset("xpanceo-team/materials-project", split="train") |
| | print(ds) |
| | print(ds.column_names) |
| | ``` |
| |
|
| | Convert to pandas (may be heavy depending on memory): |
| |
|
| | ```python |
| | df = ds.to_pandas() |
| | ``` |
| |
|
| | Parse `structure` with pymatgen: |
| |
|
| | ```python |
| | from pymatgen.core import Structure |
| | |
| | row = ds[0] |
| | structure = Structure.from_str(row["structure"], fmt="json") |
| | |
| | print(structure.composition, len(structure)) |
| | ``` |
