The artificial intelligence workbench: a retrospective review

摘要: Last decade, biomedical and bioinformatics researchers have been demanding advanced user-friendly applications for real use in practice. In this context, the Artificial Intelligence Workbench, an open-source Java desktop application framework scientific software development, emerged with goal of provid-ing support to both fundamental applied research domain transla-tional biomedicine bioinformatics. AIBench automatically provides function-alities that are common applications, such as user parameter defini-tion, logging facilities, multi-threading execution, experiment repeatability, work-flow management, fast interface among others. Moreover, promotes a reusable component based architecture, which also allows assembling new by reuse libraries from existing projects or third-party software. Ten years passed since first release AIBench, so it is time look back check if has fulfilled purposes was conceived how evolved over time.
