Summary on Grant Application Form
Machine learning systems that produce human- comprehensible hypotheses from the data are being increasingly used for knowledge discovery within both business and science. These systems are typically open loop, with no direct link between the Machine Learning systems. This project will test the alternative of Closed loop machine learning the system. This is related to the area of active learning in which the machine learning system actively selects experiments to discriminate between contending hypothesis. In the closed loop machine learning the system not only selects but also carries out these experiments in the learning domain.
