Using machine learning to find an optimal mixture of metals to create a desired alloy

A large team of researchers at the Max-Planck-Institut für Eisenforschung GmbH, working with colleagues from Technische Universität Darmstadt, Delft University of Technology and KTH Royal Institute of Technology, has found that it is possible to use machine learning to help metallurgists find the optimal mixture of metals to create a desired alloy. In their paper published in the journal Science, the group describes their three-step process and how well it worked when tested. Qing-Miao Hu and Rui Yang with the Chinese Academy of Sciences, Institute of Metal Research, have published a Perspectives piece in the same journal issue outlining the work done by the team on this new effort.
