Changed introduction and requirements

The goal of this project is to develop a framework that overcomes these challenges by integrating adaptive learning with uncertainty-aware models. This involves formulating an active learning approach that adaptively selects both material structures and numerical parameters to optimize computational resources, while employing Gaussian process regression [^RasmussenWilliams06] to effectively propagate and manage uncertainties in heterogeneous datasets. By combining these techniques, the project aims to improve the accuracy, efficiency, and reliability of data-driven materials modeling.

adaptive = active, right ?


- Non-uniform computational cost: The cost of DFT calculations varies significantly across materials due to differences in numerical parameters (discretisation basis, k-point sampling, tolerances) required for a given accuracy. The baseline active learning approach is computing with a fixed discretisation (plane-wave cutoff) chosen a priori for the whole dataset (e.g. [^vanderOord] and [^Merchant2023]), which may not optimally balance cost and accuracy across diverse materials.

The first sentence is very nice. I think the active learning I would explain in one sentence after the bullet points. Then you can add in a second sentence that currently one usually employs a fixed discretisation and mention the rest of your last sentence here.
