In this approach, using the coarse-graining process, new materials are designed (stage 2) using the discrete chemical species (anions, backbone polymers, and secondary site of polymers) obtained from stage 1. Afterward, the relationship for properties was predicted using the Bayesian optimization (BO) in stage 3. Reprinted with permission from75. Copyright 2020 American Chemical Society.
