-I would like to thank all of my family, friends, and collaborators who supported me along the way, with the spotlight given to my parents, \textbf{Mikołaj Krajewski} and \textbf{Izabella Krajewska}, without whom I wouldn't (statistically) become a scientist, let alone become a \emph{doctor}. However, the degree is just a classifier in a database sowmehere without being backed by science created while completing it, thus I would like to thank my advisor, \textbf{Zi-Kui Liu}, for guiding me over the last 5 years of exceptionally productive research that pushed me to \emph{do better than my best}.

-I would like to thank my research group colleagues, who I worked with over the years, including \textbf{Zi-Kui Liu}, who was a great colleague, in addition to being a great adisor, ShunLi Shang, Yi Wang, Brandon Bocklund, Jorge Paz Soldan Palma, Hongyeun Kim, John Shimanek, Hui Sun, Rushi Gong, Shuang Lin, Alexander Richter, Luke Myers, and Ricardo Amaral.

-I would like to thank my colleagues who, to the best of their abilities, kept me from falling into an abys of scientific insanity, by hours spent on less-technical conversations. In particular, but in not particular order, I would like to acknowledge several of them, who regularly attended my weekly office hours over the years: Stephen Holoviak, Alexander Richter, Luke Myers, Cooper Pan, Curtis Warner, Ian Cunningham, James Ricardo, Ellie Franklin, Hamdan Almarzooqi, Jorge Paz Soldan Palma, Brandon Bocklund, and Stephanie Castro Baldivieso.

-I would like to thank my Lawrence Livermore National Lab colleagues Aurelien Perron, Brandon Bocklund, Kate Elder, Joseph McKeown, and other amazing colleagues from Materials Science Division at Lawrence Livermore National Lab (LLNL) for having the opportunity of working with them on solving challenging problems with great implementation flexibility which prompted me to deepen my understanding of highly dimensional design spaces, without which some of the work in this dissertation would never happen.

 On the software side, I would like to thank (1) Jinchao Xu from PSU/KAUST for his contribution to the development of SIPFENN; (2) Richard Otis and Brandon Bocklund from Materials Genome Foundation for supporting this work since 2019 in a variety of ways, including invaluable guidance in organizing community workshops; (3) Ricardo Amaral and Luke Myers for testing a lot of my work; (4) 
 
-In the Fall of 2023, I had an opportunity to be Visiting PhD Student at the University of Cambridge, for which I am very grateful to Gonville \& Caius College invited me, and Dr. Gareth Conduit for generously sponsored said invitation, as well as Peter and Carol Thrower for sponsoring the fellowship enabling this travel.
