“…From the computational side, deep-learning models 20 , specifically, represent a promising alternative to physics-based models for materials design, providing much faster (several orders of magnitude) yet accurate structure-property relationship predictions, thus allowing efficient design space exploration [21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28] . From composites [29][30][31][32][33] , through complex symmetric architectured materials 34 , stretchable kirigami-inspired-cut materials 35,36 , spinodoid metamaterials 37 , up to polycrystalline solids 38 , several studies have attempted to solve the inverse design problem exploiting the powerful computational and predictive capabilities provided by deep-learning techniques, mainly deep neural networks, used either as generative 31,36,39,40 or surrogate forward models coupled with other optimization methods 32,41 (e.g., evolutionary algorithms). Yet, only a few studies have provided solutions for the inverse design of truss lattice materials, mainly focusing on (i) pre-existing architectures conveniently modified to obtain lattices with desired properties, such as tunable stiffness anisotropy 42 and stronger micro-lattices with arranged defects 43 ; (ii) single complex 3D novel unit cells with load carrying applications, such as stronger lattice cores for sandwich structures 44,45 ; (iii) basic architectures (such as a square lattice), on which reinforcements are non-uniformly added in order to match the desired mechanical response from a database 46 ; (iv) targeted linear properties (in solid mechanics terms), such as lattice' stiffness 39,41,42,47 and Poisson's ratio 48 .…”
