This research provides a comprehensive taxonomy categorizing existing techniques to mitigate Catastrophic Forgetting (CF) in deep learning models, synthesizing findings from over 230 studies since 2013. It offers a structured framework for understanding diverse CF avoidance strategies, highlighting their benefits, limitations, and key challenges across various categories.
Key insights
- No single technique provides a definitive solution to Catastrophic Forgetting, with each method involving trade-offs between accuracy, storage, and computational cost.
- The field is increasingly exploring hybrid models that combine strategies from multiple categories to achieve more robust and generalized solutions.
- A prevalent unresolved issue across many CF mitigation techniques is the requirement for a 'task oracle' during inference, alongside the critical need for standardized testing protocols for fair comparison.
