arXiv:2607. 26455v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) have demonstrated strong capabilities in knowledge acquisition and reasoning, yet their ability to retain previously acquired knowledge under repeated updates remains insufficiently understood.

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.
