The paper proposes FORKS (Fast Incremental Matrix Sketching), a novel algorithm for Online Kernel Learning (OKL) that addresses the limitations of existing second-order OKL approaches. These limitations include high computational complexity and the absence of incremental updates, which can lead to poor performance in real-world streaming recommendation datasets and adversarial environments. FORKS constructs an incremental maintenance paradigm for second-order kernelized gradient descent, incorporating incremental matrix sketching for kernel approximation and incremental matrix decomposition for explicit feature mapping construction. Theoretical analysis shows that FORKS achieves a logarithmic regret guarantee similar to other second-order approaches while maintaining linear time complexity with respect to the budget. This makes FORKS more efficient than existing approaches.

OKL is a type of machine learning that helps make predictions in real-time. Some people have tried using “second-order” methods, which can be helpful, but these methods are often too slow for big applications like recommending music or movies. The authors of this paper want to fix this problem by creating a new algorithm called FORKS. FORKS is faster and more efficient than other second-order OKL algorithms, making it better suited for use in large-scale recommender systems. This could be useful for companies that need to recommend products or services to customers quickly.
