Our senses are based on our perception‚ our ability to use our combined senses to understand and interact with our environment. Using information from our

Research on computational scientific discovery aims to develop computer systems which produce results that‚ if a scientist did the same‚ we would refer to as discoveries. Of course‚ if we hope to develop computational methods for scientific discovery‚ we must be more specific about the nature of such discoveries and how they relate to the broader context of the scientific enterprise. The term science refers both to scientific knowledge and the process of acquiring such knowledge. It involves any
