A new paper benchmarks the memory consumption of stream learning methods on embedded systems, revealing that many state-of-the-art techniques are not suitable for resource-constrained environments. The study found that adaptive ensembles can quickly exceed small memory budgets, while incremental trees can grow indefinitely over long streams. Explicitly compact methods are the only viable option for the smallest budgets, but larger budgets allow adaptive ensembles to become competitive. The authors advocate for making bounded resource usage a primary design objective in stream learning, alongside concept drift adaptation. AI
