The paper explores the theoretical understanding of multi-task learning (MTL) and continual learning (CL) when used with overparameterized models like deep neural networks. It develops results describing how system parameters impact performance in an MTL setup, including model size, dataset size, and task similarity. The study also characterizes replay-based CL models, analyzing buffer size and model capacity’s effect on forgetting rate. Extensive empirical evaluations demonstrate that the findings are applicable to deep neural networks, offering guidance for designing MTL and CL models.

The paper looks at how machines learn new things without forgetting old ones. It focuses on a special kind of learning called multi-task learning, where a machine learns many tasks at once. The study also explores continual learning, which is like learning in a classroom, but instead of just getting new notes, the machine gets new information over time. Researchers want to know how these learning methods work with really complex models like deep neural networks. They found that things like model size and task similarity affect how well the machine learns. The study’s results can help people design better machines for learning.
