description Traditional creep life prediction methods are generally difficult for researchers to fully consider the key factors affecting the creep performance, which limits their application in the research and development of new alloys. The artificial intelligence method can skip the complex mechanism and directly establish the mathematical correlation between the composition/process and the target performance. The accuracy, universality, and development efficiency of the model are better than the traditional material development strategy. In this study, we collected 216 creep data of austenitic heat-resistant steel, selected a variety of different machine learning algorithms to establish creep life prediction models, calculated and introduced a large amount of physical metallurgy knowledge highly related to creep based on Thermo-Calc, and converted the creep life into the form of the Larson–Miller parameter to optimize the data distribution, which effectively improved the prediction accuracy and interpretability of the model. In addition, the optimal model was combined with a genetic algorithm to obtain the best composition and process scheme with high-creep-performance potential, providing guidance for the design of austenitic heat-resistant steel.
