Abstract:

We introduce a Bayesian active learning algorithm that efficiently elucidates phase diagrams. Using a novel acquisition function that assesses both the impact and likelihood of the next observation, the algorithm iteratively determines the most informative next experiment to conduct and rapidly discerns the phase diagrams with multiple phases. Comparative studies against existing methods highlight the superior efficiency of our approach. We demonstrate the algorithm's practical application through the successful identification of a skyrmion phase diagram.
