• Abstract: We introduce a new method for internal replay that modulates the frequency of rehearsal based on the depth of the network. While replay strategies mitigate the effects of catastrophic forgetting in neural networks, recent works on generative replay show that performing the rehearsal only on the deeper layers of the network improves the performance in continual learning. However, the generative approach introduces additional computational overhead, limiting its applications. Motivated by the observation that earlier layers of neural networks forget less abruptly, we propose to update network layers with varying frequency using intermediate-level features during replay. This reduces the computational burden by omitting computations for both deeper layers of the generator and earlier layers of the main model. We name our method Progressive Latent Replay and show that it outperforms Internal Replay while using significantly fewer resources.

  Predictive coding networks trained with equilibrium propagation are neural models that perform inference through an iterative energy process.<n>Previous studies have demonstrated their effectiveness in shallow architectures, but show significant performance degradation when depth exceeds five to seven layers.<n>We show that the reason behind this degradation is due to exponentially imbalanced errors between layers during weight updates, and predictions from the previous layer not being effective in guiding updates in deeper layers.

We discuss the performance of networks trained with backpropagation and how the error can be controlled while maximizing memory usage and minimizing computational overhead.
