Beyond Routing Saturation: A Long-Horizon Class-Incremental Perspective on Expert Routing in Multimodal Continual Instruction Tuning
Huiyu Yi, Yongqi Xu, Bogang Zhang +5
Multimodal Continual Instruction Tuning (MCIT) enables multimodal large language models to acquire new tasks sequentially while retaining previously learned capabilities. Many rece…
Dynamics Are Learned, Not Told: Semi-Supervised Discovery of Latent Dynamics Geometries For Zero-Shot Policy Adaptation
Zhiming Xu, Weitao Zhou, Xianghui Pan +4
Real-world dynamics shifts pose a critical challenge for reinforcement learning in robotics, as policies tightly coupled to nominal environments often fail catastrophically when ph…
Beyond Point-wise Neural Collapse: A Topology-Aware Hierarchical Classifier for Class-Incremental Learning
Huiyu Yi, Zhiming Xu, Dunwei Tu +3
The Nearest Class Mean (NCM) classifier is widely favored in Class-Incremental Learning (CIL) for its superior resistance to catastrophic forgetting compared to Fully Connected lay…
Free-Flow Class-Incremental Learning: Towards Robust CIL under Variable Class Arrivals
Zhiming Xu, Baile Xu, Jian Zhao +2
Class-incremental learning (CIL) is commonly evaluated under predefined schedules with fixed or nearly equal class increments, leaving irregular class-arrival scenarios underexplor…
Pushing the Limits of Distillation-Based Continual Learning via Classifier-Proximal Lightweight Plugins
Zhiming Xu, Baile Xu, Jian Zhao +2
Continual learning requires models to learn continuously while preserving prior knowledge under evolving data streams. Distillation-based methods are appealing for retaining past k…
Dual Prototypes for Adaptive Pre-Trained Model in Class-Incremental Learning
Zhiming Xu, Suorong Yang, Baile Xu +2
Class-incremental learning (CIL) aims to learn new classes while retaining previous knowledge. Although pre-trained model (PTM) based approaches show strong performance, directly f…
