InfoCL: Alleviating Catastrophic Forgetting in Continual Text Classification from An Information Theoretic Perspective (2023.findings-emnlp)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Recent studies have identified the severe performance decrease on analogous classes as a key factor for catastrophic forgetting. |
| Approach: | They propose a replay-based continual text classification method that uses fast-slow and current-past contrastive learning to perform mutual information maximization and better recover previously learned representations. |
| Outcome: | The proposed method achieves state-of-the-art on three text classification tasks. |
