AI summary

Example implementations described herein are directed to systems and methods for generation and deployment of automated and autonomous self-learning machine learning models, which can include generating a predictive model and a prescriptive model through an offline learning process at a first system; controlling operations of a second system through deploying the predictive model and the prescriptive model to the second system; and autonomously updating the predictive model and the prescriptive model from feedback from the second system through an online learning process while the prescriptive model and the predictive model are deployed on the second system.
