Scientists develop breakthrough method for crystal structure prediction: "USPEX provides great opportunities to predict the structure of compounds simply starting from a chemical formula and letting the ‘evolutionary code’ work."...
...Oganov's team made the first major step in solving this problem in 2006 with their development of a powerful evolutionary algorithm that finds the stable structure using ideas inspired by biological evolution. This method has been called "revolutionary" by some scientists...
...the computer generates dozens of initial structures, but only the most preferred ones are allowed to mate and mutate before starting the process, until the best candidates are finally obtained...
