Automation in analytics often depends on rule-based systems or static configurations. ADAT, however, introduces something more dynamic: reinforcement learning (RL). This method allows the system to learn from past interactions and improve its performance over time.

At the center of this is the LinUCB contextual bandit algorithm. Rather than executing a fixed sequence of tasks, ADAT uses RL to select actions—like choosing a transformation method or ML model—based on the context of the data.

Here’s how it works:

• If a dataset contains date fields and categorical data, ACAE might prioritize time-series forecasting or aggregation.

• In the case of image data with labeled regions, the Computer Vision Engine might favor object detection over simple classification.

• Visualizations are selected not just for aesthetics, but for clarity and relevance based on metadata and statistical structure.

This learning loop means that over time, ADAT becomes more efficient and contextually accurate. It’s not just automation—it’s adaptive automation. For those building internal data science capacity or educational platforms, RL in ADAT offers a unique advantage.
