Infrared unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) target images often suffer from motion blur degradation caused by rapid sensor movement, significantly reducing contrast between target and background. Generally, detection performance heavily depends on the discriminative feature representation between target
Class-incremental learning (CIL) requires models to continuously acquire new knowledge while avoiding catastrophic forgetting.
