About AINMD 2026

The rapid advancement of artificial intelligence has fundamentally transformed materials science, enabling data-driven discovery, predictive modeling, and autonomous experimentation that accelerate the development of novel materials. In this context, machine learning, deep learning, and high-throughput computational techniques are increasingly integrated to explore complex structure–property relationships, optimize synthesis pathways, and support the design of materials with tailored functionalities for energy, sustainability, and emerging technologies.

The International Conference on Artificial Intelligence and New Materials Development will be held from 18 to 20 December 2026 in Malaysia. The conference aims to provide a dynamic international platform for presenting cutting-edge research at the convergence of intelligent algorithms and materials innovation, fostering interdisciplinary exchange and collaboration that will drive future breakthroughs in both fields. We warmly welcome academic researchers and industrial practitioners worldwide to join and contribute to this global exchange of knowledge and collaboration.
