The goal of the classifiers is to be able to differentiate changing look active galactic nucleii (CLAGN) from an SDSS quasar sample based on multiband light curves. CLAGN are quite interested objects in that they appear to change state, but only a few hundred are currently known, and finding them is quite expensive requiring spectroscopic follow up. Being able to identify CLAGN in existing large samples would allow us to identify a statisitcal sample from which we could better understand the physics of what is occuring in these systems.
