Potential projects for PhD, MSc and undergraduates: join us
- The projects are for students of the University of Liverpool from autumn 2021, but can be considered by external interns.
- Crystals project :
Statistical analysis of the Cambridge Structural Database.
Solid crystals underpin many technological advances from solid-state batteries to safer crystalline drugs. Materials discovery still relies on trial-and-error because the basic questions of crystal equivalence and similarity were not properly resolved. The new area of Periodic Geometry has developed a continuous map containing all known and not yet discovered crystals at uniquely defined locations. This treasure map for new materials is similar to Mendeleev's periodic table whose initial gaps fuelled a scientific race to discover new chemical elements. See the 16-min video introduction and the more technical Introduction to Periodic Geometry and Topology. The project will analyse new invariant values of 1M+ known crystals in the world's largest Cambridge Structural Database to predict hot spots for synthesising future materials. - Maps project :
A low-dimensional map of high-dimensional data.
The aim is to design and implement new algorithms for mapping high-dimensional data in a justifiable way. Most algorithms for dimensionsality reduction have no underlying theory and involve too many manually chosen parameters that make an output unstable under perturbations of original points. The project will combine the rigorous approaches HoPeS and TMap to produce a theoretically justified skeleton on given points given only by pairwise distances. The next or parallel direction is to implement a dynamic analogue of TMap to interactively visualise huge datasets in a hierarchical way. We collaborate with the world-leading materials scientists Prof Andy Cooper FRS and Prof Matt Rosseinsky FRS, whose groups provide us with real and simulated data in the Liverpool Materials Innovation Factory. - Textiles project :
An algorithmic classification of periodic textiles.
The aim of this applied research project is to implement a software tool to automatically classify textile structures and knotted strands in materials. Formally, a textile or a 2-periodic link is a set of continuous lines or closed curves in a thickened plane that are preserved by translations along two linearly independent vectors. Textiles are considered equivalent (or periodically isotopic) if they can be continuously deformed to each other through intermediate textiles. Other students working on this project in the past have implemented a combinatorial encoding of textiles, automatic generation of textile codes and some isotopy invariants that distinguish textiles. The latest reference is CaG 2020. - Plastics project :
Data science for plastic waste reduction.
Most plastic materials are not really recycled, because the `secondary' plastic has poor performance properties in comparision with `virgin' plastic used (for example) in crack-resistant milk bottles. Any plastic material is an amorphous solid made of polymer molecules. Such a material can be modelled as a finite set of points representing atoms or molecules in a big box with periodic boundary conditions. The aim is to develop Data Science methods to predict mechanical properties of plastic from its invariants above. For example, the recent Average Minimum Distances can be potentially extended to non-periodic plastic materials. This project is closely related to the nearly £1M grant Understanding the quality-performance linkage for packaging led by Dr Thomas McDonald in Liverpool Chemistry. - Expected skills for all the projects above.
This research direction is suitable for a student who is dreaming about a PhD with a practical impact. The project will require strong programming skills, preferably Python, C++ or sometimes R. Communication skills will be needed to collaborate with a PhD student working in the same area. Other potentially useful skills are linear algebra and computational geometry. Depending on progress, there is a potential for joint publications of research results. - Publications based on past MSc or final year projects (all co-authored with former students):
MATCH 2022, DACOMSIN 2021, CaG 2020, VISAPP 2020, TopoInVis 2019, EMMCVPR 2017, JEI 2017, ISVC'16, CCIS'16. - How to apply for one of the projects above.
External candidates are welcome to follow the advice in the post how to join the research group. For internal candidates (final year and MSc students at the University of Liverpool), the first step is to e-mail Dr Vitaliy Kurlin a CV or a brief description of your past programming projects. The second step will involve solving programming exercises on basic geometry and working with software libraries. After that I would be happy to meet for a 15-min discussion. Thank you.
