Continual Learning in the Teacher-Student Setup: Impact of Task Similarity

Sebastian Lee, Sebastian Goldt, Andrew Saxe

Continual learning-the ability to learn many tasks in sequence-is critical for artificial learning systems. Yet standard training methods for deep networks often suffer from catast…
