Abstract
The correlation between the properties of fourth-row transition element small clusters is studied using linear and nonlinear machine learning (ML) methods. The feature space, or equivalently called descriptors, is defined based on a wide range of electronic, mass and atomic properties. Considering the similarities between these clusters, the possibility of predicting some special characteristics such as formation energy and low-frequency vibrational modes using the ML techniques is reported by an accuracy of more than 99%. Interestingly, such fascinating results have been obtained using even linear ML techniques as well as nonlinear ones by significantly lower computational cost. This observation further reveals the correlative characteristics of transition metal clusters. However, the considered methods include linear regression and support vector machine methods as two well-known linear and nonlinear techniques, respectively. Based on the obtained results, most correlating factors are extracted. In this regard, it is found that the valence band energy and bond lengths of any combination of nine different transition metal clusters can predict their corresponding parameters in the tenth one. This result seems to be fascinating since the dependency between the cluster energy and bond length might be less expected as opposed to the dependency between the valence band energy and cluster energy.
