• Abstract: The aim of this paper is to formalize a new continual semi-supervised learning (CSSL) paradigm, proposed to the attention of the machine learning community via the IJCAI 2021 International Workshop on Continual Semi-Supervised Learning (CSSL-IJCAI), with the aim of raising field awareness about this problem and mobilizing its effort in this direction. After a formal definition of continual semi-supervised learning and the appropriate training and testing protocols, the paper introduces two new benchmarks specifically designed to assess CSSL on two important computer vision tasks: activity recognition and crowd counting. We describe the Continual Activity Recognition (CAR) and Continual Crowd Counting (CCC) challenges built upon those benchmarks, the baseline models proposed for the challenges, and describe a simple CSSL baseline which consists in applying batch self-training in temporal sessions, for a limited number of rounds. The results show that learning from unlabelled data streams is extremely challenging, and stimulate the search for methods that can encode the dynamics of the data stream.

  In-context learning (ICL) is potentially attributed to two major abilities: task recognition (TR) and task learning (TL) We take the first step by examining the pre-training dynamics of the emergence of ICL. We propose a simple yet effective method to better integrate these two abilities for ICL at inference time.

  Foundation language models (LMs) have marked significant achievements in the domains of natural language processing (NLP) and computer vision (CV) However, they can not emulate human-like continuous learning due to catastrophic forgetting. Various continual learning (CL)-based methodologies have been developed to refine LMs, enabling them to adapt to new tasks without forgetting previous knowledge.

  In this study, we introduce a novel two-stage framework to boost in-context learning in large language models (LLMs) Specifically, our framework delineates the ICL process into two distinct stages: Deep-Thinking and test stages. The Deep-Thinking stage incorporates a unique attention mechanism, i.e., iterative enhanced attention, which enables multiple rounds of information accumulation.

The benchmark uses SODA10M, a recently released large-scale dataset that concerns autonomous driving related problems. We introduce CLAD-C, an online classification benchmark realised through a chronological data stream that poses both class and domain incremental challenges. We examine the inherent difficulties and challenges posed by the benchmark, through a survey of the techniques and methods used by the top-3 participants in a CLAD-challenge workshop at ICCV 2021.

Our solution ranked 2rd in this challenge, and we hope our method can serve as a baseline for future academic research.
