arXiv:2608. 04358v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Continual learning (CL) requires models to learn tasks sequentially, yet deep neural networks often suffer from plasticity loss and poor knowledge transfer, which can impede their long-term adaptability.

arXiv:2608. 14634v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Biological intelligence naturally prevents catastrophic forgetting through Complementary Learning Systems (CLS) theory, a macroscopic consolidation process driven at the local level by synaptic metaplasticity: the continuous, history-dependent neuromodulation of individual synapses.

arXiv:2604. 27031v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: In a continual learning setting, we require a model to be plastic enough to learn a new task and stable enough to not disturb previously learned capabilities.

arXiv:2608. 11690v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Continual learning must absorb new tasks without erasing old ones, and replay---mixing a small buffer of past examples into current training---is among the most effective remedies for catastrophic forgetting.

The paper investigates how multi‑neuromodulatory dynamics—driven by dopamine, acetylcholine, serotonin, and noradrenaline—can improve artificial neural networks’ continuous adaptive learning and mitigate catastrophic forgetting. It demonstrates that neuromodulators interact across multiple spatial and temporal scales, creating a complex many‑to‑many mapping between neuromodulators and tasks. The authors propose neuromodulation‑aware learning rules, architectural formulations, and a conceptual Go/No‑Go study to illustrate how biologically inspired mechanisms can enhance ANN robustness and adaptability.

arXiv:2601. 18699v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Sequential fine-tuning of Large Language Models (LLMs) adaptation to target tasks often triggers catastrophic forgetting, where the acquisition of novel target skills degrades ancestral capabilities.
