• Abstract: Class-Incremental Learning (CIL) aims to learn a classification model with the number of classes increasing phase-by-phase. An inherent problem in CIL is the stability-plasticity dilemma between the learning of old and new classes, i.e., high-plasticity models easily forget old classes, but high-stability models are weak to learn new classes. We alleviate this issue by proposing a novel network architecture called Adaptive Aggregation Networks (AANets), in which we explicitly build two types of residual blocks at each residual level (taking ResNet as the baseline architecture): a stable block and a plastic block. We aggregate the output feature maps from these two blocks and then feed the results to the next-level blocks. We adapt the aggregation weights in order to balance these two types of blocks, i.e., to balance stability and plasticity, dynamically. We conduct extensive experiments on three CIL benchmarks: CIFAR-100, ImageNet-Subset, and ImageNet, and show that many existing CIL methods can be straightforwardly incorporated into the architecture of AANets to boost their performances.

  Few-shot class-incremental learning aims to incrementally recognize new classes using a few samples. One of the effective methods to solve this challenge is to construct prototypical evolution classifiers. Because representations for new classes are weak and biased, we argue such a strategy is suboptimal.

  Few-shot class-incremental learning (FSCIL) confronts the challenge of integrating new classes into a model with minimal training samples. Traditional methods widely adopt static adaptation relying on a fixed parameter space to learn from data that arrive sequentially. We propose a dual selective SSM projector that dynamically adjusts the projection parameters based on the intermediate features for dynamic adaptation.

  In real-world applications, dynamic scenarios require the models to possess the capability to learn new tasks continuously without forgetting the old knowledge. We propose a new architecture, named continual expansion and absorption transformer(CEAT) The model can learn the novel knowledge by extending the expanded-fusion layers in parallel with the frozen previous parameters. To improve the learning ability of the model, we designed a novel prototype contrastive loss to reduce the overlap between old and new classes in the feature space.

  Existing Class Incremental Learning (CIL) methods are based on a supervised classification framework sensitive to data labels. When updating them based on the new class data, they suffer from catastrophic forgetting: the model cannot discern old class data clearly from the new. In this paper, we explore the performance of Self-Supervised representation learning in Class Incremental Learning (SSCIL) for the first time.
