Accelerated discovery of near-zero ablation ultra-high temperature ceramics via GAN-enhanced directionally constrained active learning by Wenjian Guo, Fayuan Li, Lingyu Wang, Li'an Zhu, Yicong Ye, Zhen Wang, Bin Yang, Shifeng Zhang, Shuxin Bai

“…The framework employs GAN for data augmentation, symbolic regression for feature weight derivation, and a self-developed EAI function that incorporates input feature importance weighting to quantify bidirectional deviations from zero ablation rate. Through only two iterations, this framework successfully identified the optimal composition of HfB2-3.52SiC-5.23TaSi2, which exhibits robust near-zero ablation rates under plasma ablation at 2500 ​°C for 200 ​s, demonstrating superior sampling efficiency compared to conventional active learning approaches. …”
