Inverse Engineering of Mg Alloys Using Guided Oversampling and Semi‐Supervised Learning
Advanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.End‐to‐end design of engineering materials such as Mg alloys must include the properties, structure, and post‐synthesis processing methods. However, this is challenging when destructive mechanical testing is needed to annotate unseen data, and the processing methods for hypothetical alloys are unknown.

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.Identifying non‐small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) subtypes is essential for precision cancer treatment. Conventional methods are laborious, or time‐consuming. To address these concerns, RPSLearner is proposed, which combines random projection and stacking ensemble learning for accurate NSCLC subtyping. RPSLearner outperforms state‐of‐the‐art approaches in
