Online Learning via Learned Latent Bayesian Tracking

Online learning in non-stationary environments requires models to adapt rapidly from streaming data under strict computational constraints. A principled approach casts online learning as Bayesian state tracking, where model parameters are updated sequentially via Bayesian filtering. However, applying Bayesian filters directly to modern deep models is computationally prohibitive due to the high dimensionality of parameter space, forcing existing methods to rely on restrictive approximations or manually designed low-dimensional subspaces. In this work, we identify the absence of a suitable low-dimensional dynamical representation as the core bottleneck in Bayesian filtering-based online learning. Accordingly, we propose Adaptive Update through Representation Adaptation (AURA), a meta-learning framework that learns offline a low-dimensional latent state-space model governing the evolution of optimal model parameters under distribution shift. Online adaptation is then performed via extended Kalman filtering in this learned latent space followed by reconstruction of the full model parameters through a learned lifting map, enabling efficient single-step online adaptation while preserving model expressiveness. Evaluated on online adaptation of neural wireless receivers under time-varying channels and on non-stationary image classification, AURA shows substantial improvements in adaptation speed, accuracy, and computational efficiency over existing online learning and Bayesian filtering baselines, demonstrating that an adaptation-aware latent geometry is beneficial for effective Bayesian online learning in high-dimensional models.
