The relations between the mechanical properties, heat treatment, and compositions of elements in aluminum alloys are extracted by a materials informatics technique. In our strategy, a machine learning model is first trained by a prepared database to predict the properties of materials. The dependence of the predicted properties on explanatory variables, that is, the type of heat treatment and element composition, is searched using a Markov chain Monte Carlo method. From the dependencies, a factor to obtain the desired properties is investigated. Using targets of 5000, 6000, and 7000 series aluminum alloys, we extracted relations that are difficult to find via simple correlation analysis. Our method is also used to design an experimental plan to optimize the materials properties while promoting the understanding of target materials.
