Humans have the ability to accumulate knowledge of new tasks in varying conditions, but deep neural networks often suffer from catastrophic forgetting of previously learned knowledge after learning a new task. Many recent methods focus on…

New classes of sounds constantly emerge with a few samples, making it challenging for models to adapt to dynamic acoustic environments. This challenge motivates us to address the new problem of few-shot class-incremental audio…
