Abstract: Methods, devices, and computer-readable media for multi-task based lifelong learning. A method for lifelong learning includes identifying a new task for a machine learning model to perform. The machine learning model trained to perform an existing task. The method includes adaptively training a network architecture of the machine learning model to generate an adapted machine learning model based on incorporating inherent correlations between the new task and the existing task. The method further includes using the adapted machine learning model to perform both the existing task and the new task.

Abstract: Methods, devices, and computer-readable media for incremental learning in image classification and/or object detection. A method for incremental learning includes identifying, for a model for object detection or classification, a first set of object classes the model is trained to detect or classify and adapting the model for use with a second set of object classes different from the first set of object classes to generate an adapted model. The method further includes retaining detection or classification performance on the first set of object classes in the adapted model by performing a knowledge distillation process for the model; and using the adapted model to detect or classify one or more objects from the first set of object classes and one or more objects from the second set of object classes.
