Machine Learning for Scientific Data Analysis

Abstract

Over the last few years, machine learning has revolutionized countless areas and fields. Nowadays, AI bears promise for analyzing, extracting knowledge, and driving discovery across many scientific domains such as chemistry, biology, and genomics. However, the specific challenges posed by scientific data demand to adapt machine learning techniques to new requirements. We investigate machine learning-driven scientific data analysis, focusing on a set of key requirements. These include the management of uncertainty for complex data and models, the estimation of system properties starting from low-volume and imprecise collected data, the support to scientific model development through large-scale analysis of experimental data, and the machine learning-driven integration of complementary experimental technologies.
