Continually trained life-long classification
Original language description
Two challenges can be found in a life-long classifier that learns continually: the concept drift, when the probability distribution of data is changing in time, and catastrophic forgetting when the earlier learned knowledge is lost. There are many proposed solutions to each challenge, but very little research is done to solve both challenges simultaneously. We show that both the concept drift and catastrophic forgetting are closely related to our proposed description of the life-long continual classification. We describe the process of continual learning as a wrap modification, where a wrap is a manifold that can be trained to cover or uncover a given set of samples. The notion of wraps and their cover/uncover modifiers are theoretical building blocks of a novel general life-long learning scheme, implemented as an ensemble of variational autoencoders. The proposed algorithm is examined on evaluation scenarios for continual learning and compared to state-of-the-art algorithms demonstrating the robustness to catastrophic forgetting and adaptability to concept drift but also showing the new challenges of the life-long classification.
