This study introduces a machine learning methodology aimed at predicting innovative halide perovskite materials that hold promise for use in photovoltaic applications. The seven newly predicted materials are as follows:  \nCsMnCl4, Rb 3Mn2 Cl9, Rb 4MnCl6, Rb 3MnCl5, RbMn 2Cl7, RbMn 4Cl9, and CsIn 2Cl7. The predicted compounds are first screened using a machine learning approach, and their validity is subsequently verified through density functional theory calculations. CsMnCl4 is notable among them, displaying a bandgap of 1.37 eV, falling within the Shockley-Queisser limit, making it suitable for photovoltaic applications. Through the integration of machine learning and density functional theory, this study presents a methodology that is more effective and thorough for the discovery and design of materials.  \nKeywords: Halide Perovskite Materials; Machine Learning; Density Functional Theory; Photovoltaic application  \nI. INTRODUCTION  \nHalide perovskites have emerged as promising candidates for revolutionizing the landscape of solar cell technology [1] . Characterized by their unique crystalline structure and exceptional optoelectronic properties, halide perovskites offer unparalleled potential for efficient and cost-effective solar energy conversion. Their tunable bandgap [2], high absorption coefficients [3], and long carrier diffusion lengths [4] make them highly attractive for photovoltaic applications. Moreover, their facile synthesis methods [5] and compatibility with flexible substrates [6] open avenues for scalable and versatile solar cell designs. Beyond their application in solar cells, halide perovskite materials hold immense promise for a wide range of electronic devices [7] . However, concerns over the toxicity of lead-based halide perovskites have prompted significant research efforts towards developing lead-free alternatives.  \nLead-free perovskite halide materials [8] represent a promising avenue in the quest for sustainable and environmentally friendly solar energy solutions. These materials offer potential for high-performance solar cells [9] while mitigating environmental and health risks. Research efforts have focused on exploring a diverse range of lead-free perovskite compositions, including tin, bismuth, and other metal halides [10], which exhibit encouraging optoelectronic properties and demonstrate potential for efficient photovoltaic applications [11] . By addressing the need for lead-free halide designs, researchers aim to unlock the full potential of halide perovskite materials while ensuring environmental sustainability and human health","cbCaihtqrduw9aWX","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaihtqrduw9aWX","pdf",13486079,1,19,"English","en",105,"# Introduction\n## Motivation for lead-free halide perovskites\n## Machine learning and DFT
