abstract = {Density functional theory (DFT) has become an indispensable
tool in materials science. Specialized DFT methods like the
Korringa-Kohan Rostoker Green Function (KKR) method are
predestined to investigate the technologically relevant
effects of crystallographic defects on the electronic and
magnetic structure of host materials. This thesis lays the
groundwork for answering the question of whether surrogate
machine learning (ML) models have the potential to
accelerate such DFT calculations since their computational
complexity severely limits them to systems sizes of about a
thousand atoms in practice. To that end, a versatile suite
of software tools that facilitates the generation and
analysis of high-throughput computing DFT datasets with the
JuKKR DFT codes and the AiiDA workflow engine is presented.
We demonstrate its use by generating a database of 8,760
converged KKR DFT calculations of single impurity embeddings
into elemental crystals with 60 different chemical elements
and varying lattice constants and that preserves the full
data provenance of each calculation. Finally, we use the
single-impurity database to compare the Coulomb Matrix and
the Smooth Overlap of Atomic Positions (SOAP) as structural
descriptors of the local atomic environment for materials
defects. Their potential use in surrogate ML models is
showcased in a simple example of host crystal structure
prediction that achieves 93 percent accuracy.},
