Developing Cheap but Useful Machine Learning-Based Models for Investigating High-Entropy Alloy Catalysts.

ABSTRACT: This work aims to address the challenge of developing interpretable ML-based models when access to large-scale computational resources is limited. Using CoMoFeNiCu high-entropy alloy catalysts as an example, we present a cost-effective workflow that synergistically combines descriptor-based approaches, machine learning-based force fields, and low-cost density functional theory (DFT) calculations to predict high-quality adsorption energies for H, N, and NH_x (x = 1, 2, and 3) adsorbates. This is achieved using three specific modifications to typical DFT workflows including: (1) using a sequential optimization protocol, (2) developing a new geometry-based descriptor, and (3) repurposing the already-available low-cost DFT optimization trajectories to develop a ML-FF.
