We conclude that: (1) Even after geophysicists have analysed the EM61 signals and ranked anomalies in order of the likelihood that each comprises UXO, our LGP tool was able to substantially improve the discrimination of UXO from scrap-preexisting techniques require digging 62% more holes to locate all UXO on a range than do LGP derived models; (2) LGP can improve discrimination even though trained on a very small number of examples of UXO; and (3) LGP can improve UXO discrimination on data sets that contain a high-level of noise and little preprocessing.
