This paper tackles federated incremental learning with dynamic memory allocation for improved model performance in non-IID data.
Exemplar VAEs link generative models with nearest neighbor retrieval and data augmentation.
EASE optimizes exemplar selection for ICL in LLMs efficiently.
Efficiently preserves old class knowledge in memory-limited settings.
We propose a framework for synthesis of geological images based on an exemplar image. We synthesize new realizations such that the discrepancy in the patch distribution between the realizations and the exemplar image is minimized. Such discrepancy is quantified using a kernel method for two-sample test called maximum m…
Paper proposes mnemonics framework for MCIL without forgetting.

Experience replay enables reinforcement learning agents to memorize and reuse past experiences, just as humans replay memories for the situation at hand. Contemporary off-policy algorithms either replay past experiences uniformly or utilize a rule-based replay strategy, which may be sub-optimal. In this work, we consid…
This paper introduces a novel approach to in-painting where the identity of the object to remove or change is preserved and accounted for at inference time: Exemplar GANs (ExGANs). ExGANs are a type of conditional GAN that utilize exemplar information to produce high-quality, personalized in painting results. We propos…

New insights into experience replay in RL algorithms.
This project combines recent advances in experience replay techniques, namely, Combined Experience Replay (CER), Prioritized Experience Replay (PER), and Hindsight Experience Replay (HER). We show the results of combinations of these techniques with DDPG and DQN methods. CER always adds the most recent experience to th…
We present a new replay-based method of continual classification learning that we term "conditional replay" which generates samples and labels together by sampling from a distribution conditioned on the class. We compare conditional replay to another replay-based continual learning paradigm (which we term "marginal rep…

Exemplar-based clustering methods have been shown to produce state-of-the-art results on a number of synthetic and real-world clustering problems. They are appealing because they offer computational benefits over latent-mean models and can handle arbitrary pairwise similarity measures between data points. However, when…
We present a generative framework for generalized zero-shot learning where the training and test classes are not necessarily disjoint.

In this paper, we consider the problem of selecting representatives from a data set for arbitrary supervised/unsupervised learning tasks.

Experience replay is widely used in deep reinforcement learning algorithms and allows agents to remember and learn from experiences from the past. In an effort to learn more efficiently, researchers proposed prioritized experience replay (PER) which samples important transitions more frequently. In this paper, we propo…

Experience replay is a key technique behind many recent advances in deep reinforcement learning. Allowing the agent to learn from earlier memories can speed up learning and break undesirable temporal correlations. Despite its wide-spread application, very little is understood about the properties of experience replay. …
An important component of many Deep Reinforcement Learning algorithms is the Experience Replay which serves as a storage mechanism or memory of made experiences.

Modern Hopfield networks help prevent forgetting in generative models after task changes.
Continual learning, the setting where a learning agent is faced with a never ending stream of data, continues to be a great challenge for modern machine learning systems. In particular the online or "single-pass through the data" setting has gained attention recently as a natural setting that is difficult to tackle. Me…
