Abstract

We propose a theoretical framework for specification and analysis of a class of learning problems that arise in open-ended environments that contain multiple, distributed, dynamic data and knowledge sources. We introduce a family of learning operators for precise specification of some existing solutions and to facilitate the design and analysis of new algorithms for this class of problems. We state some properties of instance and hypothesis representations, and learning operators that make exact learning possible in some settings. We also explore some relationships between models of learning using different subsets of the proposed operators under certain assumptions.
