Online Gradient Boosting

Online Gradient Boosting adapts the gradient boosting framework for streaming settings where data arrives one sample at a time rather than as a fixed batch. At each step the model computes a pseudo-residual for the incoming observation and updates a weak learner in place, growing an additive ensemble without storing or revisiting past data. This makes it suitable for real-time prediction and large-scale streaming pipelines where retraining from scratch is infeasible.
