Metaplasticity as adaptive gradient preconditioning for incremental learning

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.

Fast and Slow Variational Continual Learning

arXiv:2606. 24007v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Continual learning remains a major challenge for modern deep networks, partly because commonly used optimizers lack inherent mechanisms for continual adaptation.
