• Abstract: Most of the dominant approaches to continual learning are based on either memory replay, parameter isolation, or regularization techniques that require task boundaries to calculate task statistics. We propose a static architecture-based method that doesn't use any of these. We show that we can improve the continual learning performance by replacing the final layer of our networks with our pairwise interaction layer. The pairwise interaction layer uses sparse representations from a Winner-take-all style activation function to find the relevant correlations in the hidden layer representations. The networks using this architecture show competitive performance in MNIST and FashionMNIST-based continual image classification experiments. We demonstrate this in an online streaming continual learning setup where the learning system cannot access task labels or boundaries.

  Existing layer attention methods achieve layer interaction on fixed feature maps in a static manner. To restore the dynamic context representation capability of the attention mechanism, we propose a Dynamic Layer Attention architecture. Experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed DLA architecture, outperforming other state-of-the-art methods in image recognition and object detection tasks.

  In this paper, we introduce an interlaced multi-task learning strategy, defined SIRe, to reduce the vanishing gradient in relation to the object classification task. The presented methodology directly improves a convolutional neural network (CNN) by enforcing the input image structure preservation through auto-encoders. To validate the presented methodology, a simple CNN and various implementations of famous networks are extended via the SIRe strategy and extensively tested on the CIFAR100 dataset.

  We present an architecture that is effective for continual learning in an especially demanding setting, where task boundaries do not exist or are unknown. We show that models trained with the architecture are state-of-the-art for the task-free setting on standard image classification continual learning benchmarks. We also show that the architecture learns well in a fully incremental setting, where one class is learned at a time, and we demonstrate its effectiveness in this setting with up to 100 classes.

• Continual Learning in Low-rank Orthogonal Subspaces [86.36417214618575]
  In continual learning (CL), a learner is faced with a sequence of tasks, arriving one after the other, and the goal is to remember all the tasks once the learning experience is finished. The prior art in CL uses episodic memory, parameter regularization or network structures to reduce interference among tasks, but in the end, all the approaches learn different tasks in a joint vector space. We propose to learn tasks in different (low-rank) vector subspaces that are kept orthogonal to each other in order to minimize interference.
