Automated and data-driven laboratories

The aim of this questionnaire is to let your imagination explore the possibilities of developing all kinds of algorithms in an automated laboratory.

To understand the word algorithm, let's use the following definition:
"A finite set of unambiguous instructions which, given a set of initial conditions, can be carried out in a prescribed sequence to achieve a specified goal, and which has a recognisable set of final conditions.
The American Heritage® Dictionary of the English Language, 5th Edition".

Algorithms may or may not be based on AI/ML/DL tools. We will look at the two categories. 

Instructions:

•     You will complete this quiz during the next lecture Thu 28th (you can already start before if you want)
•     You can obviously use internet, but try to also use your imagination
  
•     You will work in already assigned groups (same as for the projects)
  
•     The duration of the exercise is 45 minutes. The next 45 minutes will be devoted to discussing your proposals.
•     Questions are organized along the steps of the data lifecycle diagram (regularly presented during the course) - imagine all the possible automated algorithms that could be used to improve chemistry, automation, data quality, speed,...
•   Think about and mention the required input and output (types of data) of your algorithm
