Adaptive prediction theory combining offline and online learning

The paper studies a two‑stage learning framework that first trains an offline model using approximate nonlinear‑least‑squares estimation and then adapts it online with a meta‑LMS algorithm to handle parameter drift in nonlinear stochastic dynamical systems. It provides an upper bound on the offline generalization error that accounts for strong data correlation and distribution shift via Kullback‑Leibler divergence, and it demonstrates that the combined offline‑online approach outperforms methods that rely solely on offline or online learning. Both theoretical analysis and empirical experiments support the claimed performance gains.

Online learning of neural state-space models

arXiv:2607. 17614v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Recent advances in deep-learning-based nonlinear system identification have led to encoder-based estimation of neural state-space (ANN-SS) models that achieve state-of-the-art performance in offline settings by estimating initial model states from past input-output data.

Fully Offline Reinforcement Learning

arXiv:2505. 22442v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Offline RL (ORL) promises safe and sample-efficient deployment but existing methods rely on undocumented online interactions for hyperparameter tuning and lack reliable fully offline estimates of initial online performance.

A probabilistic framework for online test-time adaptation

This paper presents a probabilistic framework for online test-time adaptation problems. In them, a model is trained on labeled data but must adapt to unlabeled data at test time under the assumption that training and test distributions potentially differ, that is, there might have been a distributional shift.
