   Machine Learning for Bayesian Experimental Design in the Subsurface

   Robin Thibaut

   Ghent University, Mar 2023

   To consult the statistician after an experiment is finished is often merely to ask him to conduct a post mortem examination. He can perhaps say what the experiment died of. Ronald A. Fisher (1890-1962)
