The Automated Recommendation Tool (ART) leverages machine learning to guide synthetic biology in a systematic fashion, without the need for a full mechanistic understanding of the biological system.
ART is a supervised learning algorithm that combines machine learning, Bayesian inference, and Monte Carlo sampling to guide very effective active learning processes. While developed to meet synthetic biology’s special needs, it is a general algorithm that can be easily applied to other problems with similar characteristics: small data sets, the need for uncertainty quantification, and recursive cycles.
