Incremental / online training #296

Closed Rabrg closed 5 years ago

Rabrg commented 5 years ago

For example, I would like to train an algorithm on all of the presently available data that I have. I constantly have an incoming stream of new data. I require an algorithm that can train on this new data, while keeping the progress of the original model (too much data to retrain the entire model from scratch every time new data arises).

Do any of the algorithms that this library implements support such "online" training?

Thanks for your attention. Online training is not available currently. But the incremental function might be helpful for your requirements.

Rabrg commented 5 years ago

Thank you for the response. For my requirements incremental and online training is synonymous, and the incremental package appears to be exactly what I'm looking for. Thanks.
