Human-agent discovery of reconfigurable in-plane ferroelectric superdomain control
Yu Liu, Boris Slautin, Ching-Che Lin +3
Automated experimentation is most effective when the observables, available actions, and objective are defined before the experiment starts, as is the case for Bayesian optimizatio…
Hierarchical automation of scanning probe microscopy through agentic orchestration and algorithmic control
Boris N. Slautin, Sheryl L. Sanchez, Aidan Swanger +5
Rapid advances in agentic artificial intelligence enable scientific systems to interpret open-ended objectives, combine heterogeneous information, invoke specialized tools, and rev…
Beyond FAIR Data: Instrument Traces for Active and Autonomous Scientific Experimentation
Sergei V. Kalinin, Boris N. Slautin, Yu Liu +1
Artificial intelligence is turning scientific instruments into active systems in which observations can determine what is measured next. We argue that this creates an additional sc…
From Closed-Loop Optimization to Open Decision Making: Coupled Digital Twins for Predictive and Autonomous Microscopy
Yu Liu, Boris Slautin, Ian Mercer +2
Automated experimentation is moving from closed-loop optimization toward open decision-making, where human or AI planners must forecast the consequences of candidate actions before…
LLM-Guided Open Hypothesis Learning from Autonomous Scanning Probe Microscopy Experiments
Boris Slautin, Utkarsh Pratiush, Yu Liu +2
Autonomous experimentation has transformed microscopy and materials discovery by enabling closed-loop optimization including imaging and spectroscopy tuning, strucutre property rel…
PATHFINDER: Multi-objective discovery in structural and spectral spaces
Kamyar Barakati, Boris N. Slautin, Utkarsh Pratiush +2
Automated decision-making is becoming key for automated characterization including electron and scanning probe microscopies and nano indentation. Most machine learning driven workf…
From Photons to Electrons: Accelerated Materials Discovery via Random Libraries and Automated Scanning Transmission Electron Microscopy
Boris Slautin, Kamyar Barakati, Utkarsh Pratiush +10
The real-world implementation of materials prediction algorithms remains limited by persistent characterization bottlenecks in materials discovery, where photon-based probe techniq…
Novelty-Driven Target-Space Discovery in Automated Electron and Scanning Probe Microscopy
Utkarsh Pratiush, Kamyar Barakati, Boris N. Slautin +4
Modern automated microscopy faces a fundamental discovery challenge: in many systems, the most important scientific information does not reside in the immediately visible image fea…
Sequential versus Manifold Bayesian Optimization under Realistic Experimental Time Constraints
Boris Slautin, Sergei Kalinin
Bayesian optimization (BO) is widely used for autonomous materials discovery, yet its classical sequential formulation is insufficient for design of experimental workflows that oft…
Dynamic Multiband Microscopy: A Universal Paradigm for Quantitative Nanoscale Metrology
Boris N. Slautin, Alwikh Rohi, Sanjay Mathur +4
Scanning Probe Microscopy (SPM) is the primary tool for exploring nanoscale functionality, yet standard single-frequency operation is fundamentally limited, because the dynamic tip…
