Matminer Property Regression Starter

Use this skill to featurize simple formulas with Matminer and fit a deterministic toy regression model for materials-property prediction.

What This Skill Does

• converts formulas into composition features with Matminer
• fits a small deterministic regression model
• reports feature count, train fit quality, and holdout predictions

When To Use It

• when a user asks for a starter on materials-property prediction
• when you need a lightweight local template before connecting to a larger materials dataset
• when you want a runnable example for the materials-property-prediction taxonomy leaf

Run

./slurm/envs/materials/bin/python skills/materials-science-and-engineering/matminer-property-regression-starter/scripts/run_matminer_property_regression.py --out scratch/materials/property_regression_summary.json

Notes

• This is a toy local regression starter, not a benchmark-quality predictive model.
• Pair it with larger curated datasets later if you need scientific performance claims.
