CIFNet: An Analytic Neural Learning Framework for Efficient and Calibrated Class-Incremental Learning

arXiv:2509. 11285v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Class-Incremental Learning (CIL) in deep neural networks is conventionally framed as an iterative gradient-based optimization problem, incurring high computational cost, hyperparameter sensitivity, and risk of catastrophic forgetting.

FFR: Forward-Forward Learning for Regression

The Forward-Forward (FF) algorithm offers a computationally efficient and biologically plausible alternative to backpropagation (BP) by training neural networks through purely local, layer-wise optimization. However, FF is inherently designed for classification via contrastive positive-negative sample pairs, and extending it to regression poses fundamental challenges: continuous target space lack natural "opposites" for contrastive learning, and the standard goodness function carries no information about target magnitude or ordering.
