Hi there,

hope this is correctly categorised under algorithms.

I was just wondering, if it would be a viable option to utilise the inputs of the citizen scientists into the system to train neural networks and utilise them to identify signal and data anomalies, respectively.

Could this be a way to boost the overall efficiency of data analysis?

All the best

Interesting idea. Then let the neural networks run in a distributed fashion like SETI@home, and you'd have a pretty mean SETI machine.
