  1. aACTs computed for experiments with the random selection (random sel.) strategy are excluded from the analysis because different approaches may introduce systematic biases, making the comparison unreliable.
  2. E-, F-, and S-RMSEs are reported for MLIPs obtained at the end of each experiment, while ACTs are computed using the entire trajectory sampled throughout the experiment. E-RMSE is given in meV atom−1, F-RMSE in eV Å−1, and S-RMSE in MPa. All E-RMSE, F-RMSE, and S-RMSE values are computed for the test data set obtained based on first principles MD trajectories at 600 K; see ref. 41. ACTs are provided in ps. We also compare biased and unbiased MD with experiments that involve the random selection (random sel.) strategy for acquiring training data. The best performance is highlighted in bold, and the second-best performance is underlined.
