Abstract
En 中文
• Prediction of superconducting Tc and identifying key physical descriptors for rational design of high-temperature superconductors. • Develops an interpretable ML framework integrating electronic, compositional, and crystallographic descriptors from CIFs. • Adopts SHAP analysis to quantitatively rank descriptor contributions, bridging statistical learning and physical mechanisms. • Validates on isostructural hydrides Mg2IrH6/Ca2IrH6, accurately predicting their contrasting superconducting behaviors. • Reveals hydrogen fraction as the decisive driver for Mg2IrH6’s high Tc (83.4 K), correlating with strong electron–phonon coupling. • Demonstrates interpretable ML can accelerate superconductor discovery via accurate predictions and deep structural insights.
