1. An apparatus for data analysis, comprising processing circuitry configured to:

select from a set of reference data, a first subset of reference data, each element of the first subset of reference data belonging to a first classification category;

select from the set of reference data a second subset of reference data;

train a classifier using the first and second subsets of reference data;

classify the first and second subsets of reference data using the trained classifier;

select from the set of reference data, a subsequent subset of reference data based upon an evaluation of the classification of the first subset of reference data and/or the second subset of reference data; and

further train the classifier using the subsequent subset of reference data.
