Humans learn adaptively and efficiently throughout their lives. However, incrementally learning tasks causes artificial neural networks to overwrite relevant information learned about older tasks, resulting in 'Catastrophic Forgetting'.…
Learning new tasks accumulatively without forgetting remains a critical challenge in continual learning. Generative experience replay addresses this challenge by synthesizing pseudo-data points for past learned tasks and later replaying…
Class-incremental learning is becoming more popular as it helps models widen their applicability while not forgetting what they already know. A trend in this area is to use a mixture-of-expert technique, where different models work together…
Episodic control has been proposed as a third approach to reinforcement learning, besides model-free and model-based control, by analogy with the three types of human memory. i.e. episodic, procedural and semantic memory. But the…
