Few-Shot and Continual Learning with Attentive Independent Mechanisms (2021, background): “Humans have the ability to learn new concepts continually while retaining previously learned concepts [11].”
Learning latent representations across multiple data domains using Lifelong VAEGAN (2020, background): “The current state-of-the-art deep learning approaches perform well on many individual databases [18,55], but suffer from catastrophic forgetting when attempting to learn data associated with new tasks [3,13,19,51,62,65].”
Continual Segmentation with Disentangled Objectness Learning and Class Recognition (2024, unknown): “Continual learning aims to mimic human learning by gradually obtaining knowledge in a sequential fashion [15, 17].”
Visual long-term memory has a massive storage capacity for object details (2008, background): “Why examine the capacity of people to remember visual information? One reason is that the evolution of more complicated cognition and behavioral repertoires involved the gradual enlargement of the long-term memory capacities of the brain (22).”
Continual Learning Of Predictive Models In Video Sequences Via Variational Autoencoders (2020, background): “Some biological organisms, such as pigeons and large primates, possess the ability to continuously learn new experiences through their lifetime [1, 2, 3].”
Selective Replay Enhances Learning in Online Continual Analogical Reasoning (2021, background): “Multiple primate species are also capable of image classification at levels that rival humans [22, 63, 64].”
Lifelong Teacher-Student Network Learning (2021, background): “Lifelong learning represents the capability of people or animals of being able to continually acquire new skills or novel knowledge from a sequence of tasks while also maintaining their performance on previously learnt tasks [2].”
