By modeling resonance frequency and quality factor across multiple vibrational modes, device designs with surface coatings, the proposed approach reveals geometry‐ and material‐dependent trends that are difficult to capture using conventional analytical or numerical methods of MEMS resonators. This is the first study to leverage machine learning on such a large experimental dataset with different types of metallic surface coatings to investigate their resonance behavior. The results demonstrate that ensemble‐based models can achieve high predictive accuracy, with resonance frequency errors approaching experimental uncertainty and consistent performance across surface types. Overall, the proposed experimental validation and design optimization approach establishes a scalable and physics‐informed reference platform for MEMS resonator prediction, design optimization, and experimental validation.
