TL;DR

This paper systematically identifies one of the fundamental challenges behind CIL, named feature collision, where the features learned by the current task-specific model may collide with those of the previous models, leading to forgetting of previously learned tasks and hindering the learning of new tasks.

MOBO: A Merging-Oriented Bi-Level Optimization Framework for Class Incremental Learning

Class-Incremental Learning (CIL) aims to enable models to sequentially learn new tasks while retaining knowledge from previous ones. Recently, merging-based pre-trained CIL methods have gained significant attention due to their competitive performance and high inference efficiency. However, most existing approaches dec...

Preserving Fairness in Knowledge Transfer for Exemplar-Free Class-Incremental Learning via Semantic Propagation

As a paradigm in continual learning, class incremental learning (CIL) aims to assimilate tasks with mutually exclusive label spaces in sequence while preserving previously established knowledge. Mitigating forgetting in CIL fundamentally relies on transferring knowledge across tasks. A straightforward exemplar-based ap...

Meta-Exploiting Complementary Semantic Consistency for Cross-Domain Few-Shot Learning Promotion

Meta-learning has emerged as an effective solver for cross-domain few-shot learning (CD-FSL) tasks. Despite achieving obvious progress recently, the typical episodic learning paradigm often causes the feature embedding model collapsing into the simplicity bias pitfall, viz., the model tends to prioritize some shortcut...
