We propose an unified approach similar to the model proposed by Nobel Prize in Economics laureate Daniel Kahneman in his best-selling book “Thinking, Fast and Slow” to describe the mechanisms behind human decision-making. The central thesis of this book is a dichotomy between two modes of thought: System 1 is fast, instinctive and emotional; System2 is slower, more deliberative, and more logical.

In this paper, we present FAST AND SLOW LEARNING (FSL),  a novel unified framework that sheds light on the symbiosis between batch and stream learning. FSL works by employing Fast (stream) and Slow (batch) Learners, emulating the mechanisms used by humans to make decisions.
