Abstract: Currently deployed models are replaced with new models when corresponding deployed algorithms are updated. The updated algorithm is pre-trained offline on training data used by the currently deployed model. Concurrent deployment of the pre-trained model during operation of the currently deployed model within the same AI system provides secondary training of the pre-trained model. For the same input, output of the currently deployed model is compared to output of the pre-trained model and a decreasing rewards process encourages matching output to that of the currently deployed model until a condition is met. Upon meeting the condition, the pre-trained model become the currently deployed model and the previously deployed model is no longer in use.
