M atomic mass
R atomic radius (empirical)
Rn row number in periodic table
Tb boiling temperature
Tm melting temperature
X electronegativity
Z atomic number
Ec cohesive energy per atom
Ef formation energy per atom

Descriptor candidates for both moduli include composition descriptors constructed as Hölder means and geometric and arithmetic standard deviations of eight elemental properties (upper) and structural descriptors from DFT and subsequent post-processing (lower).
