Teaching computers to guide science: Machine learning method sees forests and trees

Teaching computers to guide science: Machine learning method sees forests and trees While it may be the era of supercomputers and 'big data,' without smart methods to mine all that data, it's only so much digital detritus. Now researchers have come up with a novel machine learning method that enables scientists to derive insights from systems of previously intractable complexity in record time. http://ift.tt/eA8V8J
