Discovery Acceleration Factor (DAF)
id: discovery_acceleration_factor·
bridge construct
The ratio of a model's precision at top-k screening relative to random selection baseline. Quantifies how much faster a model identifies stable materials compared to untargeted DFT calculation. A DAF of 6 means 6x more discoveries per DFT calculation than random. Primary efficiency metric in Matbench Discovery.
