Fig. 7: Feature transferability.

Box plots illustrate RMSE for a CaO, b BaO, and c ZnO applying the MgO-derived features. We note that RMSE is obtained from models with five descriptors even if the method selects more than five descriptors to have a fair comparison between the SL methods because Horseshoe prior usually selects less than five features (Fig. 10). Comparison of models for describing d CaO, e BaO, and f ZnO data built from features selected by LASSO, Horseshoe prior, and Dirichlet–Laplace prior using the MgO training data in Fig. 5. RMSE is computed using the l0 norm method to refine the total descriptor set identified with each method to a model containing the number of descriptors shown on the x-axis. The center line, upper bound, lower bound, upper whisker, and lower whisker in box plots represent median, 75th percentile, 25th percentile, maximum, and minimum, respectively.
