• Abstract summary: We describe the paradigm of application-driven research in machine learning. We show how this approach can productively synergize with methods-driven work. Despite these benefits, we find that reviewing, hiring, and teaching practices in machine learning often hold back application-driven innovation.

• Abstract: As applications of machine learning proliferate, innovative algorithms inspired by specific real-world challenges have become increasingly important. Such work offers the potential for significant impact not merely in domains of application but also in machine learning itself. In this paper, we describe the paradigm of application-driven research in machine learning, contrasting it with the more standard paradigm of methods-driven research. We illustrate the benefits of application-driven machine learning and how this approach can productively synergize with methods-driven work. Despite these benefits, we find that reviewing, hiring, and teaching practices in machine learning often hold back application-driven innovation. We outline how these processes may be improved.

  Decision-makers from companies across various industries are still largely reluctant to employ applications based on modern machine learning algorithms. We ascribe this issue to the widely held view on advanced machine learning algorithms as "black boxes" We develop a methodology which unifies methodological knowledge from design science research and predictive analytics with state-of-the-art approaches to explainable artificial intelligence.
