Hi, thank you for this amazing work!
Just curious, what structure matcher algorithm is used for the challenge set?

Hi,

Thank you for asking this question. For the challenge set, we use the Pymatgen StructureMatcher class to establish if two structures are a match. We use a fractional length tolerance of 0.2, a site tolerance of 0.3 Angstroms, and an angle tolerance of 5 degrees, which are the default values in Pymatgen. Both structures are reduced to primitive cells before matching, and are scaled to equivalent volume.

Regards,
Luis
