| Summary: | Abstract Selecting appropriate material features is essential for effective data‐driven materials design. Here, we propose a multi‐objective feature optimization strategy that identifies feature subsets to improve both prediction accuracy and active learning efficiency for iterative experimentation. Our approach integrates an evolutionary genetic algorithm to explore an expanded feature space, encompassing both traditional feature pools and a continuous numerical representation of elements rather than relying solely on discrete values. We demonstrate this strategy by identifying high‐entropy alloys (HEAs) with optimal strength and ductility. Results show that the optimized feature subsets reduce prediction errors by 20% for strength and 11% for ductility. Additionally, within fewer than three feedback iterations, HEAs with outstanding combinations of yield strength and ductility are identified, highlighting the high efficiency of this approach. This multi‐objective feature optimization strategy is adaptable to other material systems, offering a pathway to improve machine learning performance and accelerate materials discovery. |
