In response to the increasing demand for tackling out-of-domain (OOD) scenarios, test-time adaptation (TTA) has garnered significant research attention in recent years. To adapt a source pre-trained model to target samples without getting access to their labels, existing approaches have typically em…
Handling the substantial communication burden in federated learning (FL) still remains a significant challenge. Although recent studies have attempted to compress the local gradients to address this issue, they typically perform compression only within the original parameter space, which may potenti…
Federated Learning (FL) is a decentralized machine learning paradigm that enables collaborative model training across dispersed nodes without having to force individual nodes to share data. However, its broad adoption is hindered by the high communication costs of transmitting a large number of mode…
Class-incremental few-shot learning, where new sets of classes are provided sequentially with only a few training samples, presents a great challenge due to catastrophic forgetting of old knowledge and overfitting caused by lack of data. During finetuning on new classes, the performance on previous…
In federated learning (FL), a number of distributed clients targeting the same task collaborate to train a single global model without sharing their data. The learning process typically starts from a randomly initialized or some pretrained model. In this paper, we aim at designing an initial model b…
Learning novel concepts while preserving prior knowledge is a long-standing challenge in machine learning. The challenge gets greater when a novel task is given with only a few labeled examples, a problem known as incremental few-shot learning. We propose XtarNet, which learns to extract task-adapti…
