### Input file for crystal model
The file with information about the metal. Dependent on the property you want to predict, the format of the file differs:
- `Metal NonMetal Classifier`. It requires a single `.csv` file with the metal (chemical formula) in the first column and the crystal system in the second.
- **All others**: Predicted with CGCNN. The input can either be a single `.cif` file (to predict a single metal) or a `.zip` folder which contains multiple `.cif` (for batch prediction)
