The proposed Taxonomy-Oriented Poincaré-regularized Incremental-Class Segmentation (TOPICS) model tackles the challenges of class-incremental semantic segmentation by incorporating taxonomy-tree structures into its hyperbolic space-based feature embeddings. This allows for plasticity in old classes, enabling them to adapt to new incremental classes while maintaining a robust structure that prevents catastrophic forgetting. The model is evaluated on eight realistic incremental learning protocols for autonomous driving scenarios, achieving state-of-the-art performance on the Cityscapes and Mapillary Vistas 2.0 benchmarks.

TOPICS is a new way to train semantic segmentation models so they can learn from new classes without forgetting old ones. This is important because real-world data often includes new or unknown objects that need to be recognized. The model uses a special type of space called the Poincaré ball, which helps it remember relationships between different classes. It’s tested on two big datasets and does better than other methods.
