Adaptive Variational Continual Learning via Task-Heuristic Modelling
<|reference_start|>Adaptive Variational Continual Learning via Task-Heuristic Modelling: Variational continual learning (VCL) is a turn-key learning algorithm that has state-of-the-art performance among the best continual learning models. In our work, we explore an extension of the generalized variational continual learning (GVCL) model, named AutoVCL, which combines task heuristics for informed learning and model optimization. We demonstrate that our model outperforms the standard GVCL with fixed hyperparameters, benefiting from the automatic adjustment of the hyperparameter based on the difficulty and similarity of the incoming task compared to the previous tasks.<|reference_end|>
