Chemically complex multicomponent alloys possess exceptional properties derived from an inexhaustible compositional space. The complexity however makes interatomic potential development challenging. We explore two complementary machine-learned potentials—the moment tensor potential (MTP) and the Gaussian moment neural network (GM-NN)—in simultaneously describing configurationalandvibrational degrees of freedom in the Ta-V-Cr-W alloy family. Both models are equally accurate with excellent performance evaluated against density-functional-theory. They achieve root-mean-square-errors (RMSEs) in energies of less than a few meV/atom across 0 K ordered and high-temperature disordered configurations included in the training. Even for compositions not in training, relative energy RMSEs at high temperatures are within a few meV/atom. High-temperature molecular dynamics forces have similarly small RMSEs of about 0.15 eV/Å for the disordered quaternary included in, and ternaries not part of training. MTPs achieve faster convergence with training size; GM-NNs are faster in execution. Active learning is partially beneficial and should be complemented with conventional human-based training set generation.
