contents Ensemble learning algorithms, the gradient boosting and bagging regressors, are employed to correct the residuals of nuclear mass excess for a diverse set of six nuclear mass models. The weighted average of these corrected residuals reduces due to their partial cancellation, yielding a significant improvement in nuclear mass predictions. Our conflated model, which integrates ensemble learning and model averaging (ELMA), achieves a root mean square error of approximately 65 keV, well below the critical threshold of 100 keV, for the complete data set of Atomic Mass Evaluation (AME2020). The validity of ELMA is demonstrated through the evaluation of $Q$ values for $α$ decay, showing a marked decrease in deviations from experimental data relative to predictions from individual nuclear mass models. We have also compiled a table of nuclear mass excesses and binding energies for about 6,300 nuclei, which serves as a valuable resource for various nuclear physics applications and is publicly accessible via the ELMA web interface (https://ddnp.in).
