Functional estimation in Hilbert space for distributed learning in wireless sensor networks

In this paper, we propose a distributed learning strategy in wireless sensor networks. Taking advantage of recent developments on kernel-based machine learning, we consider a new sparsification criterion for online learning. As opposed to previously derived criteria, it is based on the estimated error and is therefore is well suited for tracking the evolution of systems over time. We also derive a gradient descent algorithm, and we demonstrate its relevance to estimate the dynamic evolution of temperature in a given region.
