通过智能搜索空白区域，发现高维数据中潜在的优质新配置。

We present a comprehensive pipeline, augmented by a visual analytics system named ``GapMiner'', that is aimed at exploring and exploiting untapped opportunities within the empty areas of high-dimensional datasets. Our approach begins with an initial dataset and then uses a novel Empty Space Search Algorithm (ESA) to identify the center points of these uncharted voids, which are regarded as reservoirs containing potentially valuable novel configurations. Initially, this process is guided by user interactions facilitated by GapMiner. GapMiner visualizes the Empty Space Configurations (ESC) identified by the search within the context of the data, enabling domain experts to explore and adjust ESCs using a linked parallel-coordinate display. These interactions enhance the dataset and contribute to the iterative training of a connected deep neural network (DNN). As the DNN trains, it gradually assumes the task of identifying high-potential ESCs, diminishing the need for direct user involvement. Ultimately, once the DNN achieves adequate accuracy, it autonomously guides the exploration of optimal configurations by predicting performance and refining configurations, using a combination of gradient ascent and improved empty-space searches. Domain users were actively engaged throughout the development of our system. Our findings demonstrate that our methodology consistently produces substantially superior novel configurations compared to conventional randomization-based methods. We illustrate the effectiveness of our method through several case studies addressing various objectives, including parameter optimization, adversarial learning, and reinforcement learning.
