autoXRD is a python package for automatic XRD pattern classification of thin-films, tweaked for small and class-imbalanced datasets. The main application of the package is high-throughput screening of novel materials.
autoXRD performs physics-informed data augmentation to solve the small data problem, implements a state-of-the-art a-CNN architecture and allows interpretation using Average Class Activation Maps (CAMs), according to the following publications:

To install, just clone the following repository:
$ git clone https://github.com/PV-Lab/autoXRD.git
Just run space_group_a_CNN.py , with the given datasets. Note that this performs classification for patterns into 7 space-groups. Dimensionality data is not included in the code, please contact authors if interested.
The package contains the following module and scripts:
| Module | Description |
|---|---|
space_group_a_CNN.py |
Script for XRD space-group classification with a-CNN |
autoXRD |
Module dedicated to XRD pattern preprocessing and data augmentation |
autoXRD_vis |
Visualizer module for class activation maps (CAMs) |
Demo / XRD_dimensionality_demo.ipynb |
Notebook containing a demo for physics-informed data augmentation. This is a version with a modified CNN and no CAM to speed up the computation |
