This study proposes a challenging yet practical Federated Few-Shot Class-Incremental Learning (FFSCIL) problem, where clients only hold very few samples for new classes. We develop a novel Unified Optimized Prototype Prompt (UOPP) model to simultaneously handle catastrophic forgetting, over-fitting…
The data privacy constraint in online continual learning (OCL), where the data can be seen only once, complicates the catastrophic forgetting problem in streaming data. A common approach applied by the current SOTAs in OCL is the use of memory-saving exemplars or features from previous classes to be…
The prompt-based approach has demonstrated its success for continual learning problems. However, it still suffers from catastrophic forgetting due to inter-task vector similarity and unfitted new components of previously learned tasks. On the other hand, the language-guided approach falls short of i…
Current aerial robots are increasingly adaptive; they can morph to enable operation in changing conditions to complete diverse missions. Each mission may require the robot to conduct a different task. A conventional learning approach can handle these variations when the system is trained for similar…
Being motivated by ceiling inspection applications via unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) which require close proximity flight to surfaces, a systematic control approach enabling safe and accurate close proximity flight is proposed in this work. There are two main challenges for close proximity flights…
