abstract = {The construction of meta-stable four-dimensional de Sitter
vacua in type IIB string compactifications represents an
important question and an ongoing area of work. There is
considerable support both for stringy de Sitter vacua in the
interior of moduli space and for their scarceness in the
strict asymptotic regime towards infinite-distance
boundaries of the compactification moduli space. Here, we
present evidence for the existence of uplifting vacua in the
three-form flux-induced scalar potential of the complex
structure moduli of type IIB string theory on Calabi-Yau
orientifolds in the cross-over region between the interior
of the moduli space and its strictly asymptotic
infinite-distance regions. Moreover, we also exhibit the
existence of long-range axion valleys which, while not yet
supporting slow-roll inflation, do show a flattened scalar
potential from complex structure moduli backreaction and
axion monodromy. We further illustrate how such regions
hosting axion valleys may be obtained by using machine
learning techniques.},
