Abstract

There are many important applications that are multitask-oriented in the sense that there are multiple optimum parameter vectors to be inferred simultaneously by networked agents. In this paper, we formulate an online multitask learning problem where node hypothesis spaces partly overlap. A cooperative algorithm based on diffusion adaptation is derived. Some results on its stability and convergence properties are also provided. Simulations are conducted to illustrate the theoretical results.
