Mean Absolute Error (MAE) for Property Prediction
id: mean_absolute_error_materials·
bridge construct
Primary regression metric in Matbench: average absolute difference between predicted and DFT-computed material properties (eV/atom for energies, eV for band gaps, GPa for moduli). Lower is better; state-of-the-art models achieve ~0.02–0.05 eV/atom for formation energy.
cross-pax synthesis
This construct appears in 2 pax. Agents can run analyses that span all of them — findings from each pax are directly comparable because they share this construct definition.
