With the recently developed experimental method of femtosecond time-resolved spectroscopic ellipsometry [1], it is possible to obtain the transient dielectric function of a sample after excitation in a pump-probe scheme. However, modeling the experimental data manually with established ellipsometry modeling workflows is cumbersome and significantly reduces the throughput of the experiment. Here we present strategies I) to formalize the experience and physical intuition usually entering modeling strategies, II) to reduce computational costs by application of dimensionality reduction techniques, especially in the additionally required ab-initio theory calculations, and III) to improve stability, to enable an automated modeling pipeline with minimal human intervention.
