  1. The results are provided for the MTP, GM-NN, and EAM models. Atomic energies are given in meV/atom, while forces are given in eV/Å. The best training result is written in boldface.
  2. aThe results for MTP and EAM are obtained by averaging over ten splits of the original data set, except for the deformed structures. The latter were obtained for all models trained on the whole data set (training + test).
  3. bFor GM-NN models, 500 structures were selected randomly from the respective training set to prevent overfitting using the early stopping technique54. Thus, GM-NN models were trained on 500 structures less than MTP and EAM. This procedure was repeated ten times for each of the original data splits and resulted in averaging over 100 splits in total. For the deformed structures, the results are averaged over ten splits.
  4. cBinary structures are strained along the [100] direction and used as a part of the validation set. For different binaries, the strains are chosen based on certain accommodation rules (see ‘Methods’ section). The strains can vary up to 4.71%.
