From Supervised Learning to Contextual Bandits: The Evolution of AI Decision-Making

Towards AI

Supervised Learning: Train once, deploy static model; Contextual Bandits: Deploy once, allow the agent to adapt actions based on content and its corresponding reward. Supervised learning is a staple in machine learning for well-defined problems, but it struggles to adapt to dynamic environments: enter contextual bandits.

Reinforcement Learning-Driven Adaptive Model Selection and Blending for Supervised Learning

Towards AI

Inspired by its reinforcement learning (RL)-based optimization, I wondered: can we apply a similar RL-driven strategy to supervised learning? Instead of manually selecting a model, why not let reinforcement learning learn the best strategy for us? Join thousands of data leaders on the AI newsletter.

How to tackle lack of data: an overview on transfer learning

Data Science Blog

1, Data is the new oil, but labeled data might be closer to it Even though we have been in the 3rd AI boom and machine learning is showing concrete effectiveness at a commercial level, after the first two AI booms we are facing a problem: lack of labeled data or data themselves. That is, is giving supervision to adjust via.
