Reducing Catastrophic Forgetting In Self-Organizing Maps, Hitesh Ulhas Mangala Vaidya
Reducing Catastrophic Forgetting In Self-Organizing Maps, Hitesh Ulhas Mangala Vaidya
Theses
An agent that is capable of continual or lifelong learning is able to continuously learn from potentially infinite streams of pattern sensory data. One major historic difficulty in building agents capable of such learning is that neural systems struggle to retain previously-acquired knowledge when learning from new data samples. This problem is known as catastrophic forgetting and remains an unsolved problem in the domain of machine learning to this day. To overcome catastrophic forgetting, different approaches have been proposed. One major line of thought advocates the use of memory buffers to store data where the stored data is then used …
