This paper proposes an efficient and physically interpretable descriptor to evaluate the carrier relaxation time in tetradymite compounds, using a data-driven method named SISSO. The descriptor, derived from deformation potential theory, uses only elemental properties of constituent atoms and predicts relaxation time reliably for a large number of tetradymites with arbitrary stoichiometry, without requiring first-principles calculations.
