Environmental adaptation and differential replication in machine learning

When deployed in the wild, machine learning models are usually confronted withan environment that imposes severe constraints. As this environment evolves, so do these constraints.As a result, the feasible set of solutions for the considered need is prone to change in time. We referto this problem as...
