Abstract  In an open environment, machine learning is faced with various challenges, including varying category sets, non-identically distributed data and noise interference. These challenges can result in a significant decline in the performance of traditional machine learning systems built under the closed-world assumption. Therefore, open-environment machine learning is a research focus on artificial intelligence. In this paper, the current status and recent important advances in the theoretical study of open-environment machine learning are discussed from the perspectives of generalization, optimization, robustness and performance measurement. For generalization theory, the advances on the generalization performance analysis of open-set detection, transfer/meta learning and sparse learning approaches are introduced. For optimization theory, the advances on the theoretical analysis of random and sparse optimization, online and continual optimization, as well as distributed and federated optimization approaches are introduced. For robustness theory, the advances on robust learning under adversarial samples, random noise and noisy labels are introduced. For performance measurement, a number of widely used performance measurement criterions for open-environment machine learning are introduced. Finally, some prospects on the theoretical research trends of open-environment machine learning are provided.
