| | \\ Life-Long Learning | Colloquially: Learning throughout one's lifetime. \\ In AI: A particular focus of learning research targeting how systems can change their learning over //long periods// of time. "Duration" doesn't refer to a particular number of hours or years but rather indicates the expectations on the system being engineered that it learn over long periods of time, "long" relative to prior such machine learners, and "long" relative to the system's operational lifetime. || | | \\ Life-Long Learning | Colloquially: Learning throughout one's lifetime. \\ In AI: A particular focus of learning research targeting how systems can change their learning over //long periods// of time.

| | Learning from reasoning | A method for learning. Using deduction, induction and/or abduction to simulate, generalize, and infer, respectively, new information from acquired information. \\ Most effectively used in combination with Learning from Experience. | | | Learning from reasoning | A method for learning.

| | Learning from Teaching | A method for learning.

| | Multi-objective learning | Learning while aiming to / learning how to achieve more than one Goal. \\ //(There is a strange concept usage in some circles, where 'multi-objective learning' means 1-5 objectives (goals), and 'many-objective learning' means >5 objectives.) This is a clear example of how terminology can get twisted in the "fight" for attention between academics. It comes about in part because of the combinatorial explosion with more than 5 objectives.)// | | | \\ Multi-objective learning | Learning while aiming to / learning how to achieve more than one Goal. \\ //(There is a strange concept usage in some circles, where 'multi-objective learning' means 1-5 objectives (goals), and 'many-objective learning' means >5 objectives.)
