Towards optimisers that `Keep Learning'

Hart, Emma; Miguel, Ian; Stone, Christopher; Renau, Quentin

Abstract

We consider optimisation in the context of the need to apply an optimiser to a continual stream of instances from one or more domains, and consider how such a system might 'keep learning': by drawing on past experience to improve performance and learning how to both predict and react to instance and/or domain drift.
