The advent of a new generation of machine learning techniques has opened up powerful and exciting opportunities to explore and exploit the vast chemical and structural configuration spaces that exist, for example, in advanced materials such as compositionally complex alloys. While Artificial Intelligence (AI) approaches applied solely to already available data sets have provided important first insights and advances, it is becoming increasingly clear that the real successes can only be achieved through an integrated approach combining active learning, computer simulations and experiments based on computer-generated input. A prerequisite for such integrated approaches is to make the very different concepts and tools used by the respective researchers interoperable and to embed and execute them in digital workflows. The presentation will provide an overview of key aspects and recent developments in this rapidly growing field, and highlight examples where such integrated interoperable digital workflows have been successfully used.
