• Abstract: This study investigates the application of Random Forest Regression for predicting mechanical properties of alloy steel-Elongation, Tensile Strength, and Yield Strength-from material composition features including Iron (Fe), Chromium (Cr), Nickel (Ni), Manganese (Mn), Silicon (Si), Copper (Cu), Carbon (C), and deformation percentage during cold rolling. Utilizing a dataset comprising these features, we trained and evaluated the Random Forest model, achieving high predictive performance as evidenced by R2 scores and Mean Squared Errors (MSE). The results demonstrate the model's efficacy in providing accurate predictions, which is validated through various performance metrics including residual plots and learning curves. The findings underscore the potential of ensemble learning techniques in enhancing material property predictions, with implications for industrial applications in material science.

  This study introduces AlloyBERT, a transformer encoder-based model designed to predict alloy properties using textual inputs. By combining a tokenizer trained on our textual data and a RoBERTa encoder pre-trained and fine-tuned for this specific task, we achieved a mean squared error (MSE) of 0.00015 on the Multi Principal Elemental Alloys (MPEA) data set and 0.00611 on the Refractory Alloy Yield Strength (RAYS) dataset. Our results highlight the potential of language models in material science and establish a foundational framework for text-based prediction of alloy properties.

  Random forest (RF) regression model is used to predict the lattice constant, magnetic moment and formation energies of full Heusler alloys. The parity plots between the machine learning predicted values against the computed values using density functional theory (DFT) shows linear behavior with adjusted R2 values lying in the range of 0.80 to 0.94. Case studies with one full Heusler alloy and one quaternary Heusler alloy were also mentioned comparing the machine learning predicted results with our earlier theoretical calculated values.
