ESPEI uses a linear fitting strategy to parameterize Gibbs energy functions of single phases based on their thermochemical data and refine the model parameters using phase equilibrium data through Bayesian optimization within a Markov Chain Monte Carlo machine learning approach. In this paper, the methodologies employed in ESPEI are discussed in detail and demonstrated for the Cu-Mg system down to 0 K using unary descriptions based on segmented regression.
