Towards the use of artificial intelligence and machine learning in material scientist field

Currently, the Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) are used several engineering applications. They allow to reduce the human workload and to improve the quality of life. In addition, nearly every sector in the world intends to use artificial intelligence and machine learning. So, machine learning is a field of artificial intelligence that consists of programming a machine to learn to perform tasks by studying examples of these tasks. In other words, it consists of developing a model using an optimization algorithm to minimize the errors between the model and the data. The aim of this paper is to describe the role of artificial intelligence and machine learning and its current applications in material scientist field. The principle of deep learning and Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) and their use in image classification is explained.
