Accelerating battery research with an AI interface between FINALES and Kadi4Mat

The time-consuming formation process critically impacts the longevity of sodium-ion coin cells and End Of Life (EOL) performance. This study aims to optimize formation protocols for duration efficiency, targeting high-performance outcomes while minimizing the number of experiments to reduce resource consumption and accelerate discovery. Specifically, we consider two potentially competing objectives: minimizing formation time and maximizing EOL performance. Beyond this application focus, we also present a methodological contribution: a framework designed to enable interoperability between the FINALES and Kadi RDM ecosystems, which we employ to tackle our optimization problem. In this setup, the FINALES framework orchestrates experiment planning and execution on the POLiS MAP, while an active-learning agent implemented within Kadi4Mat guides experiment selection, using multi-objective batched Bayesian optimization to efficiently explore the parameter space. This interoperability enhancement enables coordinated, distributed collaboration across automated systems and human-operated workflows, bridging multiple research centers. Using this approach, we iteratively explore the trade-off between formation time and EOL performance and identify candidate solutions approximating the Pareto front. The resulting workflow demonstrates the capability of interoperable infrastructures to facilitate data-driven optimization in battery research, and establishes a transferable framework applicable to diverse materials science and engineering optimization tasks.

KadiAssistant: A conversational AI Agent for information retrieval in Kadi4Mat

We introduce KadiAssistant, a privacy-by-design AI assistant integrated into the Kadi research data ecosystem, enabling researchers to efficiently access, aggregate, and synthesize information from heterogeneous, privacy-sensitive research data. Interdisciplinary fields such as materials science bring together disciplines with their own terminology and standards. While this convergence fuels innovation, it also makes it increasingly difficult to connect and access knowledge, as data are distributed across disciplines, organizations, and individuals. For example, battery research combines electrochemical measurements, materials characterization data, physics-based simulations, and manufacturing parameters, each using different formats, vocabularies, and standards. Efficiently storing and sharing such heterogeneous data via research data platforms, such as Kadi4Mat, demands domain knowledge, technical expertise, and familiarity with metadata schemas and interfaces. Research data also vary in sensitivity: newly generated 'warm' data are often private, whereas published 'cold' data are usually openly accessible. The Kadi ecosystem offers fine-grained access control needed for sensitive data. A solution for efficient information retrieval in Kadi must therefore respect the fine-grained access permissions. To address these intertwined challenges of information retrieval, strong data privacy, and complex access control, KadiAssistant combines a self-hosted large language model (LLM) with a privacy-preserving semantic search, inspired by retrieval-augmented generation, that can access files and record metadata on Kadi. This allows the assistant to screen, aggregate, and structure information into a highly informative answer. KadiAssistant therefore bridges terminology and standards, lowers access barriers for researchers, and strengthens the Findable pillar of FAIR data principles.
