Preprint.
No findings were extractable from the material analysed.
Safety was not reported in the material analysed. Check the source before drawing any conclusion about harm.
The source did not state who this applies to in practice.
Graded across the dimensions that decide whether you should act, each from what the source actually supports. There is no single score, and where a dimension was not assessed it says so.
This record has not been graded across any dimension yet. Treat the label above as provisional and read the source.
What is missing. This record has no bottom line, key findings, reported figures, evidence dimensions. That is a gap in the analysis, not a judgement about the study.
Machine learning for scientific discovery is almost systematically data bound. Producing relevant high quality data, under budget constraints, is amongst the most promising ways to advance the field. Active learning (AL) offers promise wherever labelling requires expensive experiment, measurement, or simulation. Most existing tools cover only part of the data acquisition loop, and typically focus on either offline benchmarking or online deployment, but not both. We present ALF, a modular AL Framework that runs the full data acquisition loop via five modular components. One clear API for both settings: offline, against an existing dataset for controlled and reproducible experimentation; and online, against an oracle for acquiring new candidates in real-world deployments. ALF is open-source and available at https://github.com/instadeepai/alf.
