Interactive Machine Learning in Data Exploitation
The goal of interactive machine learning is to help scientists and engineers exploit more of their specialized data in less time. Interactive machine learning focuses on methods that empower domain experts to control and direct machine learning tools from within the deployed environment, whereas traditional machine learning does this in the development environment. This difference allows interactive machine learning systems to be more responsive, more accurate and cheaper to develop and maintain. This article provides a basic introduction to the main components and tries to untangle the many ideas that must be combined to produce practical interactive learning systems. It also describes recent developments in machine learning that have significantly advanced the theoretical and practical foundations for the next generation of interactive tools.
