The
knowledge of phase diagrams is crucial to understand materials
and to design new ones with better properties. However, elucidating
phase diagrams is a difficult task, both experimentally and theoretically.
In this work, we address the problem of predicting phase diagrams
and crystal structures using a data-driven approach. We used machine
learning methods to predict the stable phases using composition, temperature,
and pressure extracted from a set of diagrams contained in the NIST
database. We used the extracted data to train machine learning algorithms
to predict the stable phases and the chemical formula of the stable
compounds, including structural features such as Bravais lattices,
crystal types, and the local atomic environments of the inorganic
compounds contained in the ICSD database. The computationally efficient
data-driven methods presented in this paper will aid material scientists
in estimating the structure of virtually any mixture of elements in
any proportion over a wide temperature range.
