A General Memory-Bounded Learning Algorithm
share
In an era of big data there is a growing need for memory-bounded learning algorithms. In the last few years researchers have investigated what cannot be learned under memory constraints. In this paper we focus on the complementary question of what can be learned under memory constraints. We show that if a hypothesis class fulfills a combinatorial condition defined in this paper, there is a memory-bounded learning algorithm for this class. We prove that certain natural classes fulfill this combinatorial property and thus can be learned under memory constraints.
