Abstract
AbstractIn the present study, we show that time-consuming manual tuning of parameters in the Rietveld method, one of the most frequently used crystal structure analysis methods in materials science, can be automated by considering the entire trial-and-error process as a blackbox optimisation problem. The automation is successfully achieved using Bayesian optimisation, which outperforms both a human expert and an expert-system type automation despite the absence of expertise. This approach stabilises the analysis quality by eliminating human-origin variance and bias, and can be applied to various analysis methods in other areas which also suffer from similar tiresome and unsystematic manual tuning of extrinsic parameters and human-origin variance and bias.
