arXiv:2604. 02765v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Class-incremental learning (CIL) is commonly evaluated under predefined schedules with fixed or nearly equal class increments, leaving irregular class-arrival scenarios underexplored.

arXiv:2506. 20893v5 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: In this paper, we reveal a significant shortcoming in class unlearning evaluations: overlooking the underlying class geometry can cause information leakage about the forgotten class.

arXiv:2607. 01474v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Class imbalance poses a critical challenge in federated learning (FL), where underrepresented classes suffer from poor predictive performance yet cannot be addressed by standard centralized techniques due to privacy and heterogeneity constraints.
