In this paper, researchers propose a novel approach to class-incremental learning (CIL), called PEARL, which leverages pre-trained models (PTMs) to continuously introduce new categories into a classification system without forgetting previously learned ones. The authors critically examine the limitations of existing methods and implement an input-agnostic global prompt with an adaptive momentum update strategy to reduce the model’s dependency on data distribution. This approach mitigates catastrophic forgetting and fosters continuous enhancement of the prompt for new tasks by harnessing correlations between different tasks in CIL. The proposed method achieves state-of-the-art performance on six benchmarks.

Class-incremental learning is a way to teach machines to learn from new categories without forgetting old ones. Researchers are trying to use pre-trained models to make this process better. They’re proposing a new approach called PEARL that uses a special kind of prompt to help the model learn from new data. This approach helps the model remember what it learned before and adapt to new information. The authors tested their method on several datasets and found that it performed very well.
