Industry Talk: Realtime Learning and Control Theory

Traditional Machine Learning methods work offline, calculating the analysis model from a complete data set. A modern alternative is online learning, where the model is adapted using new data. Typically online learning requires incremental learning methods. We describe some ideas of incremental learning. Second, online learning represents a shift from pure data analysis to control theory. For illustration, we will give some examples and talk about reinforcement learning.
