On line (de)formation: e-learning disadvantages

Partition Nets: An E cient On-Line Learning Algorithm

Partition nets provide a fast method for learning sensorimotor mappings. They combine the generalizing power of neural networks with the \one shot" learning of instance-based search algorithms. Partition nets adjust receptive elds and allocate network weights \on the y," in response to the local sample density and complexity of the mapping. They can help a robot adapt quickly to bodily and envi...
