Messages from the Psi-k trustees and other topics of relevance to the Psi-k community, e.g. community-led software codes or databases…

Due to the large number of posts recently, there is currently a delay of several weeks between posts being submitted and the corresponding emails being distributed to all users. Please bear with us while we try to improve this. In the meantime – and until this notice is removed – it would assist us considerably if you could submit only important and/or urgent posts and thus help to reduce the size of the mail queue. Under no circumstances should you resend posts multiple times when you find the emails are not distributed immediately.

In light of the Russian military offensive in Ukraine, we request that announcements relating to events, jobs and other activities associated with institutions supported by the Russian and Belarusian states are not posted to the Psi-k forum.

The Novel Materials Discovery (NOMAD) Centre of Excellence (https://nomad-coe.eu) has launched a crowd-sourced data-analytics competition with Kaggle, the most famous data science platform for predictive modelling and analytics competitions:
https://www.kaggle.com/c/nomad2018-predict-transparent-conductors
The challenge is to build predictive models for both formation and bandgap energies for a dataset, obtained by DFT calculations, consisting of binary, ternary and quaternary group-III oxides. The winners will share a prize of 5,000€ and will be invited to the CECAM conference organized by NOMAD (Lausanne, September 2018, https://www.cecam.org/workshop-1569.html).
We encourage the psi-k community to participate in the competition.
